WHAT IS VOICETHREAD?

VoiceThread is an online platform for hosting group discussions.  It allows you to view presentations, files, or images by the teacher or creator of the VoiceThread.  This can then be shared and users then can comment on the discussion topic or presentation.   Comments can take many forms.  You can add in a written comment, an audio recording or a video comment.

There is a free version of VoiceThread, that allows you to view and comment on any VoiceThread.  You can create five VoiceThreads with the free account.  You are limited on the amount of video commenting you do with a free account.
