VoiceThread

In this session, we will explore the ways that VoiceThread can help your students develop an AI-aware skillset and avoid the academic pitfalls of having a homework-completing co-pilot available 24/7/365. Understanding the human advantage is a critical component of AI readiness curriculum, and VoiceThread is the perfect platform to showcase, preserve, and develop these human-advantaged skills.

In this workshop, you will create a VoiceThread. 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 accounts.

This is a hands-on 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.

In our third hands-on workshop in the series, participants will learn how to give private feedback, use threaded commenting, copy VoiceThreads for use with multiple groups, and use comment moderation to formatively assess student work..
