What is Voicethread?

A VoiceThread is an online media album that supports any type of media, such as images, documents and videos, and enables people to navigate and make comments in different ways:

• Voice – recording with a microphone or telephone

• Text

• Audio file

• Video – using a webcam

The voicethread can be shared with your students or colleagues – They can record comments, doodle on the slideshow while commenting, or even use multiple identities, which is great for the shyer students. You can moderate all the comments.

You can embed your Voicethreads on to your Moodle course or website, or you can even export the thread to MP3 players or DVDs.
