Description
If you want to move beyond the traditional text-based discussion board, DoIT is looking for faculty volunteers to pilot VoiceThread (VT), a cloud-based application that takes an audio/visual approach to discussions. Among other things, VT users can upload media such as images, video, and documents into a central screen or “deck” for asynchronous group conversation. After sharing the initial presentation deck, others can contribute to the conversation. VT includes Blackboard integration for ease of collaboration and engagement experiences.
DoIT is sponsoring a limited number of pro accounts for the pilot so faculty can evaluate the effectiveness of VoiceThread for engagement and discussions. Join us for a demonstration & introduction to VoiceThread during this kickoff session on Wednesday, December 2, 2015 from 2-3 PM. Light refreshments will be served.
