Mark Carls commented on Susan Bestwick's group '21st Century Learning'

Juliana, Resistance? That's too bad. I would hope doing a VT would be a little more engaging. Maybe their a little 'too cool' for it now. I hope it gets better and the do enjoy it. Good luck. I'm sure others in here would have some great ideas to ...

I posted some of my vacation photos from Rome and made a match the correct feet with important works of art quiz. The first two weeks of classes I had the students register for a voicethread account using their school email. They added me as a con...

Building VT resources

As for now, please feel free to share any good Voicethread resources in this Ning, or include me in on del.icio.us tags for mcarls.
Here are my del.icio.us links I have right now:

At 2:14pm on September 29, 2009, Semadar Goldstein said…: Hi Mark,
Thanks for your welcome. I actually do have a few questions. I uploaded 4 videos to my VT account. I added some typed comments. I could not figure out how to play back the set I edited. When I played it for my students, I just clicked on the videos and the typed messages I had written did not come out. Tomorrow I want the students to comment in various places in hte clip. How do I do this? Here is a link to my VT clip; it's on my iGoogle account,

At 10:58am on September 28, 2009, Amy Madigan said…: Thanks. Someone I know mentioned that they could have their students upload their essays, then they could easily read over them, and make comments by typing, or recoding their voice. Sounded pretty neat, so I though I could give it a try.

Thanks for the welcome. Actually I don't teach a second language, I teach an online course for pre-service teachers on how to use the internet in their classrooms. For the first time this semester, I'm including VoiceThread as a tool that we all use so they can become familiar with it. So far they are very excited about using it for their own teaching. Here is the link for our class VT http://voicethread.com/share/554313/ I hope to do more with it each semester.

At 5:50pm on September 27, 2009, Robin Daugherty said…: Thanks! I am really looking for ideas on how to use VT in my classroom. I am using it this week for the first time with my 5th graders. I gave them a set of pictures for our vocabulary words and I told them to say the definition of the word and create a silly sentence with the word. I don't know how it will go but I am curious to see. How do teachers usually get the students VT accounts so they can create their own?
