Introduction to Voice Thread

Did you see this before, well a nice tutorial, I think my clients would love to learn it. Regina

Two reasons to look forward to tonight's class

1. Voice Threads
I looked up the materials today at lunch and actually swore out loud while watching the clip. If you've ever wondered how to set instructional materials on the web that are truly, deeply and incredibly interactive, wait and see this incredible learning object.

2. The experimental classroom
While the 'greeny' in me balks at the sheer volume of toxic fumes from a) the coal-burners which produced the power to run the room, b) the output from the factories which made all that plastic and other nasty stuff and c) what will happen when they are disposed of, i can't halp but get excited by at least one thing: the 'Sunvote.' If you've ever craved giving instant and accurate feedback to your students, you may find this irresistible. When someone figures out how to hook it up to a graphics tablet it'll be brilliant. I can't help but add that I'm not sold on the layout but maybe it'll work. I'm happy to give it a chance.

See you tonight!
