Voicethread

What is Voicethread?
One of the best free tools available to teachers and students who are learning with the world rather than about the world is Voicethread. Known as a “group audio blog,” Voicethread allows users to record text and audio comments about uploaded images. Voicethread has two distinct advantages for classrooms that are communicating and collaborating across counties, countries or continents:


 * 1)  **Voicethread is Asynchronous:** That means users can work on and enjoy Voicethread presentations at any time--even if their "partners" are sleeping a million miles away!
 * 2)  **Voicethread is Engaging:** Let's face it--sometimes working with digital partners can be pretty boring. After all, email and discussion boards are nothing more than written text. Voicethread gives users something interesting to talk about---pictures! What's more, being able to actually hear one another makes digital communication through Voicethread much more personal.
