Interactive Presentations

I’ve but been looking at a actually interesting on work tool called Voicethread.

What's Voicethread?
Voice thread enables users to practise online presentations using their ain images. It also allows the creator to add together good or written text to the images as well as plough over access to other people to exit good or text comments on the presentation. This is a actually squeamish means of creating presentations that tin plough over notice interact as well as practise dialogue amongst an online audience.

Here’s a distich that I’ve created. I decided that I wanted to purpose this tool for a shape of students I learn inwards Second Life. I wanted them to explore diverse islands as well as accept snapshots of what they found. They would as well as hence live on able to upload these to Voicethread as well as tape good reports, which they could as well as hence percentage amongst the shape as well as exit comments on. I idea this would live on a adept means to larn them to actually concentrate on producing a high character fine tuned finished product, equally they would know that in that location was as well as audience for these presentations.

I created these ii presentations of examples of what I wanted them to do.
  • Example 1 This ane is a tour of Edunation II inwards Second Life.
  • Example 2 This ane is a see to Vassar Island as well as you’ll encounter that a few people cause got already left comments.

How practise I purpose it?
In social club to assistance them empathise how to purpose the tool I also created this flick tutorial.
I actually intend that this is a remarkable tool. It’s been peculiarly created for educators as well as hence it has some actually squeamish features.

How tin plough over notice I purpose it amongst my students?
Here’s a few other things I intend yous could larn students to practise which would assistance to prepare their linguistic communication abilities.

  • Ask as well as hence to upload some images of things amongst personal significance as well as practise a form of online demonstrate as well as tell.
  • Get students to practise as well as enjoin a even using pictures. If they cause got access to digital cameras, yous could larn the students to operate inwards pairs or pocket-size groups to gain a even together.
  • Upload ii images as well as inquire students to tape what they intend is the connective betwixt the ii images
  • Upload images for students to describe, such equally rooms or people etc.
  • Upload images of people speaking as well as inquire students to add together a dialogue. They could also add together text bubbles of what they intend the people are thinking
  • Ask students to question a fellow member of their household unit of measurement as well as hence upload an prototype of the somebody as well as enjoin close them.
  • Get students to upload pictures from approximately their town as well as practise a sort of interactive tourist guide
  • Upload some images of graphs as well as statistics as well as encounter if students tin plough over notice depict them appropriately
  • Upload some images amongst wrong descriptions as well as encounter if they tin plough over notice location as well as right the errors
This page is also good worth looking at: http://voicethread.com/classroom.php
It has some user guides which yous tin plough over notice download as well as also shows yous how to laid identities for your kids hence they don’t cause got to bring out whatsoever personal information.

I promise yous detect this useful as well as practise permit me know how yous purpose it.
