New ELI 7 Things... Brief Explores VoiceThread

Created by Peggy Kurkowski (EDUCAUSE) on June 10, 2009

VoiceThread is a media aggregator that allows people to post media artifacts—which might be a document, a slide presentation, a video, or a collection of photos—for community feedback. Commentators can add remarks by means of microphone, webcam, keyboard, or telephone. The resulting Flash-based animation contains the original artifact and the commentary on it.

The 7 Things You Should Know About VoiceThread, EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative’s (ELI) latest brief in the monthly series, explores how this tool incorporates media from a variety of sources and allows the layering of sound and comments from many sources. In this way, the application may support completely new types of sharing and presentation.
