Extended Abstract
VoiceThread never stands still! We are consistently working on improving features and the user experience. This is important to us because we know the online experience can be flat and lonely for students who need human connection to succeed in class.
This session introduces our 3rd major change to the user interface in our 15-year history. We have made the Accessibility features a seamless experience for everyone and we can't wait to show you!
In this workshop, we will provide a walkthrough of the new user interface, showing you how to set the stage for real, meaningful conversations and connect with your students using VoiceThread to improve course satisfaction and student learning.
VoiceThread is a cloud-based application that brings your media into collaborative spaces where others can engage using voice, video, or text commenting. The results are highly interactive and engaging conversations that combine stronger human presence with the flexibility of an asynchronous learning environment. VoiceThread integrates directly within your LMS courses and the grade center via LTI to make the experience for instructors and students seamless.
