Description of Tool:
Voice thread is a tool that allows uploads of video recordings, pictures, and audio recordings to allow for presentation of material

How does tool apply to your curricular area?
We were thinking that voice thread would be a cool way, especially for project based learning classrooms, to be able to log a step by step approach to a problem. Being as we are all in technology engineering and design education, most of our classroom education materials are based around problem solving and design where some sort of log book is required for documentation. This tool would allow for groups of students to do a joint, interactive log of their process since voicethread allows for a sequential display of processes as well as multiple audio recordings to be used at once.

Where does tool fit in Digital Blooms and why?
This tool fits into understanding, analyzing, evaluating, and creating. Understanding: the tool would show students level of comprehension of material Evaluating:the tool will allow students to evaluate their processes while they are working on their project Creating: The tool will allow students to create an aesthetically pleasing presentation of what they have done with their project and allows them to create a presentation that can be seen by the class as a whole and documents their whole thinking process
