Voicebook

What is a VoiceThread? If you want to use a video for your classroom, would you use VoiceThread? Why?

Apparently, VoiceThread is a type of multimedia presentation that includes voice, images and videos. It also allows for people to interact with the presentation, by adding their own text, drawing, and images.

As far as using this in the classroom, I sort of doubt it. While I'm all for new technology in the classroom, this one seems to be a little over-elaborate. If I want to present a video, I'll probably just use YouTube and let my class discuss it aloud.
