VoiceThread

This training is designed for faculty members who have mastered all of the basic technical aspects of using VoiceThread, but would like to see some alternate pedagogical approaches. We will take a deep dive into some uses cases that demonstrate how to incorporate elements of storytelling and game-based learning into your VoiceThread activities. We will discuss playback settings like "one conversation" and timed comments, and we will have an open Q&A throughout the training.

In this session, Dr. Raelynne Hale from Kansas State University will showcase a variety of VoiceThreads from her language courses. Dr. Hale is an Assistant Professor and Spanish Language Program Co-coordinator.
