Lindsay DiDio on 09 Feb 09I think Voice thread alone, is a great tool we can bring into the classroom.

Lindsay DiDio on 09 Feb 09What I was thnking about while listening to the YouTube video and this Voice Thread, is that it sounds like so many educators are TEACHING the technology, rather than USEING it. It sounds like a lot of educators aren't confortable enough with the programs or software to be able to use it effectivly in their teaching practice. I think if we are allowing our students to use say power point for their presentation of a report, than the actually creation of slide shoudl come last. The program use should be used as a supplement.

Mary Elizabeth Meier on 12 Feb 09I am interested with what this group is saying about 1) students as co-creators, 2) expanding the four walls of the classroom, 3) the idea of the collective, and 4) encouraging collaboration.

Elizabeth Andrews on 16 Feb 09I am excited to experience a form of communication and reading that uses various senses: hearing the voice of the speaker is powerful. This could be linked with specific (non-text) based images as well. Having voices from around the world, and of different ages and experience levels, participate in an asynchronous discussion is fascinating. I imagine this in-between time/space is a difficult time for educators. The video suggests we have moved from the industrial age to the digital age / information age, but our schools haven't kept up. What does it mean to be in-between? Instead of worrying about rigid categories for our next "age" -- what can happen in a moment in history when we are not quite "here nor there"?
