Voice Thread

Voice Thread is an interesting online app that allows you to annotate your photographs with voice and text. Multiple users can annotate a selection of images or a single image. The demo on the web site employs a sequence of historical photographs and drawings by students. As a teacher of history this registered a chord within me. It is a great tool that allows students, and adults too, to record oral histories and to simply tell stories. It is always useful to experiment with alternative forms of expression.

The interface is simple to use. Comments can be moderated. It is very freindly tool to use.
