How can we use Voicethread in Education?
Voicethread is one of
the most wonderful tools that I have ever seen because I can do lot of things
on it. For example I can upload pictures and start commenting using different tools
such as typing, recording my voice, adding a web cam video or a phone call. For
that reason, I think that using this tool in education could be so interesting
for those students who really like to surf on the net, and also for those who
are visual learners. I would use this program with students of Intermediate
English as they are more able to talk in English. I imagine an assignment in
which I upload information of an interesting topic for young adults. In this
case I am going to mention “Marriage”. So, I would post my information about it
and later students have to comment on it and give their own opinion.
But, I would assign them a different way to comment on the presentation. (Some would type, others would record their voice, and the rest would do it by a web cam video.) I can say that in this way I can use Voicethread in education with the only purpose of making a class different and interesting at the same time.

ResponderEliminarI'm in agreement with you Kenia, I think voice threat help to those students that are visual learners because this tool is really interactive and you can add important and certain information for a class that you consider will be helpful for you as a teacher and also for the apprenticeship of your students.
ResponderEliminarI think that voicethread is a good tool so that teachers use in the classroom to have successful claces , and this program can help us to innovate students because they also learn from teachers, and this is what technology offer us to continue working better.
ResponderEliminarVoicethread helps visual learners Kenia, and it is very important for the teacher if he/she wants to teach a class in a creative way. You don't have to worry anymore if powerpoint does not work.
