Most cognitive scientists agree that storytelling is a great way to help your message stick in the minds of an audience. Our minds are fine-tuned to remember information shared within a narrative structure, not a broadcast lecture. In this workshop, participants will learn how to use VoiceThread to create engaging stories with their students.

VoiceThread Basics 1- upload, comment and share

In this workshop, participants will learn how to upload media, comment and annotate on that media, and share it with others. This will be a slow paced, step-by-step, hands-on workshop. It is open to both VoiceThread license holders and free members.

VoiceThread Basics 2- groups and secure sharing

When: August 13, 2019 1:00 pm (Eastern Standard Time)

In this workshop, we will begin to explore the features available to VoiceThreaders with a full license. Participants will learn how to create groups and subgroups, set sharing permissions within those groups, and privately share VoiceThreads with individuals.

VoiceThread Basics 4- VoiceThread and your LMS

When: September 3, 2019 1:00 pm (Eastern Standard Time)

Register here

In this workshop, we will work on integrating VoiceThread into an LMS environment. With LMS integration educators can create and share VoiceThreads and grade student work. Participants will learn how to use the assignment builder feature to assess student work during a hands-on segment. Everyone who registers will receive the recording of the session the following day. (Note: LMS integration is an add-on product, so participants whose institutions don’t have integration are welcome to join us but won’t be able to complete the hands-on activities.
