Week Six Thing Fourteen

This summer I had the chance to take a class on multimedia tools to use in the classroom. We spent quite a while looking at Voicethread and I loved this tool! I can remember my mind just reeling. I could was daydreaming of all of the ways I could use this in my classroom. 4 months later, I still have not used this. Now that I have spent more time on Voicethread today, I feel that it is a more attanaible goal. I can use this to showcase book reports and allow students to comment on what they have learned.

I have to admit that the task of leaving a comment on a Voicethread was quite scary. Yesterday I had to make an announcement using our PA system and I nearly paid someone else to make it for me. I hate leaving messages on machines or hearing my voice in any way on a recording.

I believe that this fear will subside the more I use Voicethread. So, the Voicethread below is the actual one I commented on. Look for the picture of my avatar to see my comments.
