Voice Threads

Voice thread is an excellent way to promote collaboration on line. You can up load images, documents, videos and voice recordings. These can then be commented on and edited right before your eyes. The uses pop up around the outside of the page so they are easily recognisable and easy to comment back to. If a picture is uploaded the participants in the discussion can even circle items to draw your attention to it.

This tool would be excellent to promote creativity and discussion among a group of learning. To give an example of this in the corporate training field, let us think of a visual merchandising training.
I would upload a picture of a merchandised floor area. I would ask the group I was training to log on at the same time and ad comments and circle things that could be changed to improve the merchandising.
