Voicethread

Voicethread is such an interactive tool! It was neat you could add a comment by phone, webcam, microphone, text, and file upload. I noticed how many teachers used it to incorporate art into the curriculum. I thought it would be fun to use with text or illustrations from books. Students could respond to the themes, reading strategies, book reviews, and so much more. I heard a comment on one voicethread that mentioned how it could help those students who are uncomfortable sharing in a group discussion.
I tried to use Wallwisher this school year, but it did not work well for my classroom. Has anyone else tried Wallwisher?
