I am sending this email out during summer in hopes that you will get familiar with VoiceThread and want to use it during the school year. I plan to have my students complete our state, Missouri, sometime in September but this can be done when ever your schedule allows. There are really no limits for this project so have fun with it! Please share this with any grade level, and/or government official, or anybody you see who could comment about their state as a way for our students to learn more about our great country. If you have any questions or comments my email is jalbers@lindberghschools.ws. Enjoy!…
icipating around mid to late November. You just need to send me your address close to that time. At that point you can add some voicethreads of your own and we can comment back.
Do you have any contacts that might be interested in something like this?? We'd love to seee Ted's adventures farther afield. Could be part of the Voicethread and Ted's Excellent Adventures series!!!
talk to you soon

e classroom and we have participated in a few collaborative voicethreads. Yesterday I tried adding a video to vt for the first time, that was a learning experience in itself! A lot of trial and error until I found a video format that would upload.
Anyway, I think this was my first blogpost here on Classroom20. I'd like to take the opportunity to say thanks to Steve and all the wonderful educators who have made every visit to Classroom 20 a learning experience! Oh and please, add yourself to the map :-)…
ke learning math, science or writing techniques more fun. Many allow connections to happen between users. Some help students publish and create. Very few of these tools, however, can provide a platform for ANY subject with controlled levels of collaboration & publishing while putting interactive media features in the hands of students. The VoiceThread website & accompanying mobile application go well beyond the average for digital educational platforms. In fact, VoiceThread SETS the standard for safety & security, scalable adoption, customization,& most of all- results! If you want your students to join the ranks of thousands who are easily creating meaningful, interactive content… then please read on!
How have you used VoiceThread in your classes? What is your opinion of the new mobile version? Have you paid for a class or district level subscription?
Please leave your feedback about this chapter! To view all my VoiceThread resources, click the image below.
