Project 8 and Project 14: How to Use Voicethread



I would use Google Docs to teach my students how to use Voicethread. I would also use Diigo to capture screenshots of Voicethread. One screenshot for each step in the Process of making a Voicethread.

The first step would be to sign up for (or sign in to) a Voicethread account.
The second step would be to go to the Create tab.
The third step would be to upload an image, or a set of images. These can be from your computer, a url, or a media source.
The fourth step is to record a comment or to type a comment under that image (or both).
The fifth step is to share what you've created. You can embed your Voicethreads onto other websites or send them in emails.

You can make contacts on Voicethread and view their Voicethreads and comment on their material or make Voicethreads in response.

Voicethread.com is a very useful website. In the classroom, it could be used to create photo essays. It could also be used to send images to your project partners.

I would have to let my student's know that the basic Voicethread account only comes with three Voicethreads. They would have to either upgrade their accounts or choose wisely.
