Voicethread+In+Classrooms



In this example two VoiceThreads were set up for two classes from different communities (rural and city). The students were asked to upload a photograph that reflected a certain aspect of their community (eg transport) and record a brief description. Once both classes had completed this task for each of the assigned categories, the schools were invited to view each others' threads, **ask questions** and **make comparisons**. Here is a brief tour of the threads: || media type="custom" key="9148596" || It has students **identifying objects** in their school that start with the letters of the alphabet.
