Voice Thread

(Having Internet problems)

I enjoyed the Voicethread activity. I strongly agreed with the one video we had to watch with Ken Robinson as the speaker. Creativity has, by some teachers, been taken out of teaching. I try my best to use as much creativity as I can when I teach because it captivates the students attention more. The Voicethread we were to respond to can be found at the link above. The picture really says it all. This poor student is bored out of his mind. It truthfully reminds me of my high school days where we read stories and answered questions.
