Voicethread Pro Free for K-12 Educators
I have been featuring VoiceThread a lot recently in my workshops with English Teachers in Local Hong Kong schools. The teachers are really very enthused about it as there are very few tools as easy to use and to see the educational benefit from at a glance. I have just been informed that “VoiceThread now offers free Pro Accounts for K-12 educators” . This is going to make it incredibly easy for teachers to begin to create really worthwhile threads and share them with their communities.
For those of you who have not used VoiceThread yet, here is a description courtesy of another blogger.
VoiceThread is a web application where you build narrated slide-shows. Upload some pictures, record some commentary (or type in text if you wish), then share with selected friends. It’s beautifully simple, and the interface is an easy-to-look-at mix of charcoals and greys. The design means the images are the centre of attention, and you can’t help but produce slick results.
