Digital Storytelling - how can students put together all the pieces of a digital story.

Digital story telling - stories are a great way to help students improve their language ability - this gives them a way to create something around that. This tool is more focused than Voicethread, and as a result less flexible, but still provides a similar experience and functionality.

Here is another good site with an overview of features of voicethread. This site also offers a great deal of handouts of how to guides, teacher tips, and examples etc. The table of contents for this site is as follows: Using Voicethread for Digital Conversations Unrelenting Desire to Interact What is Voicethread? Planning a Voicethread Commenting Tips for Voicethreaders Sample Strand of Comments Assessing Voicethread Participation Teaching Students to Create and Moderate Threads Sample Voicethreads Voicethread Handouts Voicethread Overview Voicethread Do's and Don'ts Tips for Teachers Copying an Existing Voicethread Previewing a Voicethread Commenting on a Voicethread Commenting Language The Cultural Photograph Welcome to Our World Powerpoint Template for Quotation Voicethread The Holocaust and Hitler's Youth Template Scoring Student Participation in an Asynchronous Conversation Sources for Images Citing Images

Very specific and detailed instructions/suggestions for using Voicethread in the classroom. Has tips and even talks about assessing.

Probably similar to Digitales, students create a slideshow and can add text. No voice recording possible, but something to explore all the same.

A wiki with a lot of Voicethread related tutorials. It's good if you like very detailed oriented tutorials (as opposed to learning it on your own).
