Voice Thread Assignment

Find my group VoiceThread here: VoiceThread

Topic: What specific needs does a distant learner have? What specific skills does a teacher need in an online environment to meet the needs of students?
Members in my Group: Amanda, Glen, Sandra, & Trang (group leader)

 

My group collaborated well. We used Google+ Hangout to have a video call to edit and finalize our project. We used email before the video call to communicate about our presentation - how many slides, who would do which part, how the work would be distributed, and content of slides.

I had never used VoiceThread before and it was very friendly. Dr. McNeil's email detailing how to use it was very easy to follow. Our group also spoke about how to add content to the VoiceThread (everyone was to use video, audio, and text) and what was expected. I felt like we did a lot of work before actually using VoiceThread and that made it a smooth process.

I will use VoiceThread with my students' monthly projects. I will have them add video, audio, and text to their presentations and make constructive comments to their peers' projects (like I learned in this module).
