You have to work hard to do this when you consider only 1% people will actively take part in your activity.<br /><br />I think you did the right thing by reminding us about the VT with your second email. <br /><br />Have another look at the resources on the wiki that talk about asynchronous communication...is there anything that will help you attract more comments to your VT?<br /><br />http://wikieducator.org/Facilitating_Online/Resources#Facilitating_asynchronous_communication_.28email_groups.2C_discussion_forums_or_bulletin_boards.29Sarah Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480597227427423793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046206307202688950.post-66206821250020253322010-10-24T10:47:57.389-07:002010-10-24T10:47:57.389-07:00Good Morning Kim.

I think now I need some time between the course ending and making any better comment about it, I am still seeing mainly positives, which is amazing in itself.<br />I found it easy to post a thought on vt. I think that is because I have become very used to talking into a mike, giving myself permission to say what comes along and not feeling judged on what that may be. I am thinking as I write this of Sarah's comments on OER that putting yourself out there with material can brings feelings of vulnerability through peer observation. With new things I often think of the old adage 'feel the fear and do it anyway'. <br /><br />Why would you use voice thread and how would you attract people to it, given there are now a plethora of tools to select from.<br /><br />Well for what it is worth; there are many people who can think and talk at the same time, in fact this may be a preferred form of providing feedback, especially where timezones are a consideration. <br /><br />You may be able to use vt to provide feedback on an assignments and tease out more information from a student through asking deeper questions. I see there is a text component and that would be useful for students to see and hear the question.<br /><br />there you goJane Scrippshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03452210181122335571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046206307202688950.post-24008804435713924612010-10-23T13:46:33.226-07:002010-10-23T13:46:33.226-07:00Don't forget to think about how you attract pe...Don't forget to think about how you attract people to voicethread...and how you keep the conversation going...what you want your outcome to be...how you instruct people about what VT is and how your measure the success of your outcome.Sarah Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480597227427423793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046206307202688950.post-33870103429541711732010-10-22T14:15:35.441-07:002010-10-22T14:15:35.441-07:00Hi Kim,

Please add my email address (in the share section) so that I can view it and record in it.<br />coachcarole2012(at)gmail.com <br />I am doing a voicethread AS my final presentation and I've hit a few technical problems with the slides. So my VT is in a holding pattern while we sort those out.<br />Great to see a fellow VT enthusiast.<br />CCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
