Podcast

The voicethread program is very interesting and useful. This is a very creative way to get the students engaged in learning. Allowing them to post information, share, and listen to each other's opinions is a good way to make the students feel apart of learning. Providing an opportunity for the students to hear or read each other's response creates a sense of competition because the next person wants to be better than the last.

Furthermore, podcasting is another method that can be used to assess student knowledge without all the hustle and bustle of grading papers. This gives teachers instant feeback on whether or not a lesson was effective.
