Thing #19 - Voicethread

I think voicethreads will be very beneficial to use for students who are out of the classroom for one reason or another. If they are able to access it from home, they would still be able to hear the lesson and learn the concept for the day that they were out. If they are unable to access it from home, it may be a good idea to pull them out of their accelleration class and have them watch the lesson then. They would still need the full lesson, so the teacher would need to record the lesson and post it to their page. This would definately take time on the teachers part, but this could be something that we split up among the teachers in our department and each do a part. It may actually be beneficial for the students to be able to hear a different teacher present the lesson too! If a student is struggling in comprehending the lesson, they could get on the voicethreads and hear a different teacher teach it!
