I Have Just Discovered Voki !!
Do you see my new avatar to the right of this screen? Click on the play arrow and hear my new Voki avatar speak to you. Voki is a program that is being used by over a million teachers around the world, and is changing the way we can learn. You create your own avatar from hundreds of choices in Voki. Then your teacher assigns you a concept to explore and after you have done the research, you tell us all about it through your avatar. You record your voice, and your avatar looks like it's speaking for you as we hear what you have recorded. This is too cool! An entire class can be assigned different components of a concept, then we put all the small pieces together and see the big picture as we listen to each avatar! I can't wait for us to try this out!!! I just purchased a year-long subscription for our team....Get used to the Yorkie over there; you'll be seeing her quite a bit with new messages!
