Very likely VoiceThread is one of the best Web 2.0 tools for classroom use to come around in awhile. Very powerful and embeddable just about everywhere. Check out this short explanation and try one yourself. Family reunion? Old family pic you wanna post and encourage some comments from others? Too much fun.

But can it improve learning? Certainly fits the constructivist paradigm. How about a self reflection on a themed unit? Or a review of best practices for tech integration for diverse learners? Listening to others think aloud can boost our own critical thinking skills.

Powerful tool with lots of potential. Worth the time and effort to become skilled therein, don’t you agree?
