VoiceThread is a collaborative, multimedia slide show that holds images, documents, and videos and allows people to navigate slides and leave comments in several ways – text, voice, audio file, or webcam. VoiceThread is available to any instructor who would like to incorporate this engagement tool into their digital toolkit for academic continuity. With VoiceThread, faculty and students can:
Demonstrate procedures to help students prepare for a practical exam
Explain decisions when selecting subjects for a painting’s composition
Foster greater community in large, lecture-based classes
Debate the pros and cons of a controversial issue
Practice foreign language skills during role-play
Critique a classmate’s composition
