Voicethread
In my Web 2.0 workshop, the participants moved through stations using various software/web sites. As part of the station, they posted their ideas on how to use the software in their classrooms. Their ideas on using Voicethread are listed below:
1. Providing examples for students to reference in order to perform mathematical operations. ex- converting fractions from mixed numbers to improper fractions
2. Paired with united streaming, this could be useful to match each video more closely with the curriculum.
3. Have students experiment to get comfortable with more advanced features.
4. Make a station and /or use as review
5. This could be used with our Young Authors Project. Students create short books that are illustarted. The students could read their work and show off their books. It could also be used as part of a poetry unit where students would write and illustrate poetry and read it to an audience.
6. Good for modeling how to proofread.
7. Good for modeling thought processes and logical thinking (Math/Problem Solving)
