What is VoiceThread?

VoiceThread is a cloud-based media collaboration platform that enables users to engage in asynchronous discussions around various types of content, including images, videos, and documents. The application can be accessed through any modern web browser, requiring only an up-to-date version of Adobe Flash, and does not require any software installation.

Highlights

• Persistent virtual rooms: VoiceThread creates a virtual space where users can return and continue discussions over time, fostering a sense of community and meaningful connections
• Multi-sensory engagement: The platform supports rich, multi-modal interactions, allowing users to contribute voice, text, and drawing annotations to the shared media
• Research-backed design: VoiceThread's features and functionality are informed by extensive learning research, including ESSA III and IV certification, to facilitate effective collaboration and discussion.
