Vocaroo: Voice Recording Made Easy - The FLTMAG - 4 views

  •  
    I like that Vocaroo is easy to use, requires no password, and is free.
  •  
    3 huge reasons to like it!

    I'm not sure if it does more than what can be done on Schoology, our LMS. Does anyone have experience with this?

    My first chance to read Florencia's article, made me realize that oftentimes students' OT use is driven by what they perceive to be our unrealistic expectations of them. She offers a very practical strategy for accommodating OT in the classroom while reducing student motivation to resort to it.
  •  
    An easily readable article with key insights into why forbidding OT is NOT the best practice after all!
  •  
    Absolutely loved this article, nice set of five questions to ask when designing assignments ina way that discourages student use of OTs.
  •  
    Great article!
  •  
    I relate to approaches #1 and #2, but not really the rest. I haven't had many issues with OT anyway. What is your approach?

  • A Speaking Practice App

      I would say compared to Flipgrid the biggest thing is it has a more formal interface, perhaps more appropriate for assessment. I'm not sure if that is worth paying a license though.
  • creation of assignments, houses student responses, and provides a portal for teachers to provide feedback

  • One comment I often get from students is that they wish they had more frequent, but lower stakes oral assessments. A platform like Extempore begins to make this possible

      I'm beginning to see the virtue of lower-stakes oral assessments, but wonder if a tool such as VoiceThread can be configured to perform the same functions as Extempore. (I'd rather go with what we've got at my institution than make the case for purchasing a new site license....)
