Voicethread
Classroom 2.0 Voicethread
Through the use of voicethreads in this class, as well as a brief introduction to them through a library-media specialist, I have been exposed to many of its benefits. I feel that they are great to use in a classroom of any age or content area because they allow the students to be exposed to the content and then leave their own thoughts, opinions or questions when they are done. Many students are hesitant to raise their hand and ask a question in front of their classmates, and this tool allows them to be completely connected to all necessary information and work off of what they have learned. I also feel that the voicethread connects the students and teacher in a sort of "community" type atmosphere- that continues learning and confidence even outside of the classroom.

Although Voice Threads are one of my favorite tools, they are not social-networking sites in the same sense as a Ning, a Yahoo group or a Google + group. Please try to find a true social-networking site that allows users to do things such as upload files, create or participate in blogs and forums.
