WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.340 align:middle line:90% 00:00:00.340 --> 00:00:00.840 align:middle line:90% - All right. 00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.100 align:middle line:84% Well, it is 11:30, and I'm sure there's going 00:00:03.100 --> 00:00:05.250 align:middle line:90% to be more people who join us. 00:00:05.250 --> 00:00:06.990 align:middle line:84% But I just wanted to take a moment 00:00:06.990 --> 00:00:10.290 align:middle line:90% to say welcome and thank you. 00:00:10.290 --> 00:00:14.160 align:middle line:84% I am Janet Mitchell-Lambert, and we have Kolleen Kalt 00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.560 align:middle line:90% here with us from English. 00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:20.857 align:middle line:84% And we didn't practice this presentation ahead of time. 00:00:20.857 --> 00:00:22.440 align:middle line:84% We're going to just go back and forth. 00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.110 align:middle line:84% But we both have used VoiceThread. 00:00:25.110 --> 00:00:29.190 align:middle line:84% And the purpose of this is to share what VoiceThread is, 00:00:29.190 --> 00:00:33.790 align:middle line:84% and give you some examples and answer questions about it. 00:00:33.790 --> 00:00:35.280 align:middle line:90% And yeah. 00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:37.980 align:middle line:84% So Kolleen, please feel free to interrupt. 00:00:37.980 --> 00:00:41.940 align:middle line:84% And I want to invite everybody else to feel free to interrupt. 00:00:41.940 --> 00:00:45.550 align:middle line:84% This particular slide show will be available. 00:00:45.550 --> 00:00:50.430 align:middle line:84% I will put it on our remote teaching web site 00:00:50.430 --> 00:00:53.760 align:middle line:84% under Course Tools, so you'll have an opportunity 00:00:53.760 --> 00:00:54.510 align:middle line:90% to see it later. 00:00:54.510 --> 00:00:56.310 align:middle line:84% I'm not going to read every slide, 00:00:56.310 --> 00:00:59.520 align:middle line:84% but I did want to include enough information on it. 00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:03.330 align:middle line:90% So we shall get started here. 00:01:03.330 --> 00:01:06.000 align:middle line:90% 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:06.500 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:01:06.500 --> 00:01:09.110 align:middle line:90% 00:01:09.110 --> 00:01:11.900 align:middle line:84% And just so you know, in case you didn't, every time you 00:01:11.900 --> 00:01:15.850 align:middle line:84% share something on Zoom, there is a lag time. 00:01:15.850 --> 00:01:17.100 align:middle line:90% So-- all right. 00:01:17.100 --> 00:01:20.100 align:middle line:84% So in terms of the overview, this 00:01:20.100 --> 00:01:24.990 align:middle line:84% is just the overview that is provided in the remote teaching 00:01:24.990 --> 00:01:27.180 align:middle line:90% resources. 00:01:27.180 --> 00:01:31.770 align:middle line:84% It's basically an interactive slide show. 00:01:31.770 --> 00:01:36.810 align:middle line:84% And what is lovely about it is that you can create it, 00:01:36.810 --> 00:01:38.880 align:middle line:90% and you can use it right away. 00:01:38.880 --> 00:01:42.780 align:middle line:84% You don't have to wait for things to download. 00:01:42.780 --> 00:01:46.950 align:middle line:84% And you can redo slides, which I have done many, many times, 00:01:46.950 --> 00:01:49.710 align:middle line:90% using audio or video. 00:01:49.710 --> 00:01:51.990 align:middle line:84% You can close caption the slides, 00:01:51.990 --> 00:01:54.870 align:middle line:84% and we'll be talking to you about that. 00:01:54.870 --> 00:01:57.720 align:middle line:84% But I really like this because it 00:01:57.720 --> 00:02:00.570 align:middle line:84% is good for mini lectures, as well 00:02:00.570 --> 00:02:07.080 align:middle line:84% as interactive participation from students. 00:02:07.080 --> 00:02:10.770 align:middle line:84% Did you want to add anything on top of that, Kolleen? 00:02:10.770 --> 00:02:12.520 align:middle line:90% - Just about the cost. 00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:14.100 align:middle line:84% So up until this point, I had been 00:02:14.100 --> 00:02:17.080 align:middle line:84% using the free membership, which is good, 00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:18.660 align:middle line:90% but it has some limitations. 00:02:18.660 --> 00:02:21.450 align:middle line:84% You could only do a certain number of voice threads, 00:02:21.450 --> 00:02:23.170 align:middle line:90% you know, et cetera. 00:02:23.170 --> 00:02:25.970 align:middle line:84% And then a couple of days ago, I bit the bullet. 00:02:25.970 --> 00:02:28.950 align:middle line:84% I'm like, I'm just going to pay the $99 for the year. 00:02:28.950 --> 00:02:32.240 align:middle line:84% And then the next day they said it's free for educators. 00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:33.600 align:middle line:90% So that's OK. 00:02:33.600 --> 00:02:35.510 align:middle line:84% It's only free for a limited time. 00:02:35.510 --> 00:02:40.440 align:middle line:84% So I urge you to take advantage of that. 00:02:40.440 --> 00:02:43.960 align:middle line:84% - And I'm going to ask everybody if can, if you could mute 00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:45.870 align:middle line:90% yourself that would be lovely. 00:02:45.870 --> 00:02:48.570 align:middle line:84% If you find your little picture, you can hit mute, 00:02:48.570 --> 00:02:50.250 align:middle line:90% and then you speak. 00:02:50.250 --> 00:02:54.540 align:middle line:84% You can unmute yourself, if that's OK with you. 00:02:54.540 --> 00:02:57.600 align:middle line:84% That way we can make sure that we're hearing everybody. 00:02:57.600 --> 00:02:59.130 align:middle line:90% And Kolleen is right. 00:02:59.130 --> 00:03:03.270 align:middle line:84% Basically, it is free, and not just VoiceThread, 00:03:03.270 --> 00:03:05.910 align:middle line:84% but Pronto and all these other tools, 00:03:05.910 --> 00:03:07.860 align:middle line:84% they are free for the next few months, 00:03:07.860 --> 00:03:12.600 align:middle line:84% because they're really hoping to capture you as a client. 00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:14.580 align:middle line:84% And I've been paying for VoiceThread 00:03:14.580 --> 00:03:15.820 align:middle line:90% for a number of years. 00:03:15.820 --> 00:03:21.130 align:middle line:84% And I do not pay for everything, but I definitely pay for this. 00:03:21.130 --> 00:03:24.256 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:03:24.256 --> 00:03:26.100 align:middle line:90% [INAUDIBLE] here. 00:03:26.100 --> 00:03:33.945 align:middle line:84% My arrows are not working when I have you on visit. 00:03:33.945 --> 00:03:36.650 align:middle line:84% - My bottom-- my right side of my wrist-- like, 00:03:36.650 --> 00:03:38.060 align:middle line:90% I couldn't-- first, I couldn't-- 00:03:38.060 --> 00:03:41.900 align:middle line:84% - If I could ask everybody if you're able to mute yourselves, 00:03:41.900 --> 00:03:42.900 align:middle line:90% that would be lovely. 00:03:42.900 --> 00:03:44.670 align:middle line:90% - [INAUDIBLE]. 00:03:44.670 --> 00:03:47.200 align:middle line:84% And like, every time I smiled, like my right side 00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:48.590 align:middle line:90% wouldn't move. 00:03:48.590 --> 00:03:49.580 align:middle line:90% - Hold on one moment. 00:03:49.580 --> 00:03:50.080 align:middle line:90% Sorry. 00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.220 align:middle line:90% - [INAUDIBLE] 00:03:52.220 --> 00:03:54.300 align:middle line:84% - I'm going to stop sharing for a moment, 00:03:54.300 --> 00:03:57.340 align:middle line:84% because I'm not even able to escape. 00:03:57.340 --> 00:03:57.980 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:03:57.980 --> 00:03:59.100 align:middle line:90% I am going to-- 00:03:59.100 --> 00:03:59.600 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:03:59.600 --> 00:04:01.433 align:middle line:84% So just imagine if it was your house after-- 00:04:01.433 --> 00:04:06.300 align:middle line:84% - I'm going to mute anyone who is not muted. 00:04:06.300 --> 00:04:06.800 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:08.150 align:middle line:90% So fantastic. 00:04:08.150 --> 00:04:10.695 align:middle line:84% And now I'm going to share my screen again. 00:04:10.695 --> 00:04:18.110 align:middle line:90% 00:04:18.110 --> 00:04:20.351 align:middle line:90% Excuse me. 00:04:20.351 --> 00:04:25.120 align:middle line:90% Well, let's try this again. 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:32.784 align:middle line:90% 00:04:32.784 --> 00:04:33.750 align:middle line:90% Let's see. 00:04:33.750 --> 00:04:34.350 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:04:34.350 --> 00:04:36.550 align:middle line:90% Here we go. 00:04:36.550 --> 00:04:37.050 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:04:37.050 --> 00:04:40.800 align:middle line:84% So I am going to-- and you're welcome to unmute 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:46.790 align:middle line:84% yourselves as needed if you have questions as we move through. 00:04:46.790 --> 00:04:48.090 align:middle line:90% I am going to-- 00:04:48.090 --> 00:04:50.740 align:middle line:84% and I hope I did not mute you, Kolleen. 00:04:50.740 --> 00:04:51.520 align:middle line:90% - No. 00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:52.520 align:middle line:90% I don't think-- awesome. 00:04:52.520 --> 00:04:53.640 align:middle line:90% - Awesome OK. 00:04:53.640 --> 00:04:58.850 align:middle line:84% So I wanted to take you directly to VoiceThread here and show 00:04:58.850 --> 00:05:02.300 align:middle line:90% you a few things with it. 00:05:02.300 --> 00:05:06.520 align:middle line:84% And Kolleen will also be showing some things here. 00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:08.810 align:middle line:84% I always want to do the Jeopardy theme 00:05:08.810 --> 00:05:15.060 align:middle line:84% song as I'm waiting for new screens to open up here, 00:05:15.060 --> 00:05:17.760 align:middle line:84% because it always takes a little time here. 00:05:17.760 --> 00:05:18.800 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.170 align:middle line:84% So what I'm going to show you here 00:05:21.170 --> 00:05:25.760 align:middle line:84% is I have a sample VoiceThread here. 00:05:25.760 --> 00:05:30.980 align:middle line:84% And I am just going to go through it sort of quickly, 00:05:30.980 --> 00:05:34.190 align:middle line:84% just to showcase to you that it is-- 00:05:34.190 --> 00:05:38.000 align:middle line:84% this slide show, I'm going to make this small here. 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.340 align:middle line:90% So I have a slide show here. 00:05:40.340 --> 00:05:43.250 align:middle line:84% I can click Open on a comment that I have made. 00:05:43.250 --> 00:05:46.670 align:middle line:84% - Welcome to our How to Interpret Literature. 00:05:46.670 --> 00:05:49.320 align:middle line:84% - And I've just paused it right here. 00:05:49.320 --> 00:05:54.370 align:middle line:84% And you can see that there are live captions here. 00:05:54.370 --> 00:05:57.832 align:middle line:84% - Janet, I'm still seeing your Pronto screenshot. 00:05:57.832 --> 00:05:58.540 align:middle line:90% I don't know if-- 00:05:58.540 --> 00:06:00.460 align:middle line:90% - You are still-- that is odd. 00:06:00.460 --> 00:06:00.960 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:06:00.960 --> 00:06:02.390 align:middle line:90% I'm going to try this again. 00:06:02.390 --> 00:06:04.280 align:middle line:90% I'm going to stop share. 00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:06.410 align:middle line:84% Thank you for sharing that, Kolleen. 00:06:06.410 --> 00:06:10.895 align:middle line:84% I don't know why, because I'm am directly on VoiceThread. 00:06:10.895 --> 00:06:16.475 align:middle line:90% 00:06:16.475 --> 00:06:17.230 align:middle line:90% Let's see. 00:06:17.230 --> 00:06:20.120 align:middle line:90% 00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:21.500 align:middle line:90% Are we-- are we there? 00:06:21.500 --> 00:06:22.700 align:middle line:90% - Yeah 00:06:22.700 --> 00:06:24.570 align:middle line:90% - Thank you so much. 00:06:24.570 --> 00:06:26.010 align:middle line:90% OK, so let's try this again. 00:06:26.010 --> 00:06:29.120 align:middle line:90% So this is a sample VoiceThread. 00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:30.990 align:middle line:90% And you see my little face here. 00:06:30.990 --> 00:06:33.350 align:middle line:90% This is my avatar. 00:06:33.350 --> 00:06:35.990 align:middle line:90% And it is a slideshow. 00:06:35.990 --> 00:06:42.110 align:middle line:84% And I'm going to quickly just move through a couple of slides 00:06:42.110 --> 00:06:46.760 align:middle line:84% that show you different slides that I've included, including 00:06:46.760 --> 00:06:49.910 align:middle line:84% a purpose and task, and some guidelines, 00:06:49.910 --> 00:06:54.410 align:middle line:84% and then some questions here about the particular topic 00:06:54.410 --> 00:06:56.720 align:middle line:90% that I've included. 00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:02.390 align:middle line:84% I wanted to show you that to comment on any slide 00:07:02.390 --> 00:07:06.890 align:middle line:84% that you've created, you can hit the plus sign here. 00:07:06.890 --> 00:07:09.410 align:middle line:90% And I'm hovering over it. 00:07:09.410 --> 00:07:11.670 align:middle line:90% And you can add a comment. 00:07:11.670 --> 00:07:13.400 align:middle line:84% So if I want to make a comment, I 00:07:13.400 --> 00:07:17.360 align:middle line:84% can make a text comment, an audio comment. 00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:19.200 align:middle line:90% I can use a video comment here. 00:07:19.200 --> 00:07:22.400 align:middle line:84% I tend to use audio comments, but you can 00:07:22.400 --> 00:07:25.700 align:middle line:90% do video or audio, et cetera. 00:07:25.700 --> 00:07:29.638 align:middle line:84% In talking about the captioning here, 00:07:29.638 --> 00:07:31.430 align:middle line:84% while you're waiting for captioning-- let's 00:07:31.430 --> 00:07:32.888 align:middle line:84% say you want to make a VoiceThread, 00:07:32.888 --> 00:07:34.850 align:middle line:84% and you just want to do it really quickly. 00:07:34.850 --> 00:07:37.820 align:middle line:84% You can also make a text comment. 00:07:37.820 --> 00:07:41.780 align:middle line:84% And here I'm going to just put Sample Text. 00:07:41.780 --> 00:07:44.820 align:middle line:90% And I can save it here. 00:07:44.820 --> 00:07:47.430 align:middle line:90% The closed caption comments-- 00:07:47.430 --> 00:07:49.040 align:middle line:84% - Welcome to our How to Interpret-- 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:50.790 align:middle line:84% - I'm going to pause it right here. 00:07:50.790 --> 00:07:52.920 align:middle line:90% The captions are here. 00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:55.560 align:middle line:84% If you do not have a caption on your slide, 00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:58.890 align:middle line:84% and you click on here, there is a place 00:07:58.890 --> 00:08:00.690 align:middle line:90% where you can make the request. 00:08:00.690 --> 00:08:05.640 align:middle line:84% You choose the Language, you choose Send, and you hit OK. 00:08:05.640 --> 00:08:09.960 align:middle line:84% What's lovely is that you can also edit your captions. 00:08:09.960 --> 00:08:13.320 align:middle line:84% So for example, it didn't start with a W, 00:08:13.320 --> 00:08:16.050 align:middle line:84% or maybe there's a misspelling of sorts, 00:08:16.050 --> 00:08:18.640 align:middle line:84% or maybe the word is completely wrong, 00:08:18.640 --> 00:08:21.910 align:middle line:90% you can save the captions here. 00:08:21.910 --> 00:08:27.270 align:middle line:84% And I show you this because once you have everything captioned, 00:08:27.270 --> 00:08:29.770 align:middle line:90% you are ready to go. 00:08:29.770 --> 00:08:32.010 align:middle line:84% So I wanted to show you that for just a moment, 00:08:32.010 --> 00:08:34.500 align:middle line:84% just to let you know that this is a slideshow. 00:08:34.500 --> 00:08:37.799 align:middle line:84% So you see several different slides. 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:40.530 align:middle line:90% They can be screenshots. 00:08:40.530 --> 00:08:42.990 align:middle line:90% They can be videos. 00:08:42.990 --> 00:08:45.690 align:middle line:84% And I will share that what I tend to do 00:08:45.690 --> 00:08:49.560 align:middle line:84% is create a PowerPoint or a Google slideshow 00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:51.390 align:middle line:90% that I download. 00:08:51.390 --> 00:08:54.900 align:middle line:84% And then I save as a PowerPoint, and I upload it 00:08:54.900 --> 00:08:59.940 align:middle line:84% to VoiceThread, which I will show you in a minute. 00:08:59.940 --> 00:09:04.590 align:middle line:84% And then I make comments on every single slide. 00:09:04.590 --> 00:09:07.080 align:middle line:84% Now, there's a sample that I'm going to show you 00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:09.210 align:middle line:90% that has only two slides. 00:09:09.210 --> 00:09:11.310 align:middle line:90% You can have multiple slides. 00:09:11.310 --> 00:09:14.010 align:middle line:84% You can have a single slide if you want. 00:09:14.010 --> 00:09:15.780 align:middle line:84% So you can have as few or as many 00:09:15.780 --> 00:09:21.150 align:middle line:84% slides as you want about any sort of content that you want. 00:09:21.150 --> 00:09:22.890 align:middle line:90% I wanted to show this to you. 00:09:22.890 --> 00:09:29.220 align:middle line:84% I want to show you that once I've created VoiceThreads-- 00:09:29.220 --> 00:09:32.410 align:middle line:84% and you're going to see several showing here in a minute. 00:09:32.410 --> 00:09:38.280 align:middle line:84% I want to show you some options for sending, for using, 00:09:38.280 --> 00:09:40.630 align:middle line:90% et cetera. 00:09:40.630 --> 00:09:43.020 align:middle line:84% So I just showed you-- just very quickly. 00:09:43.020 --> 00:09:45.000 align:middle line:84% I'm not even talking about content here. 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.330 align:middle line:84% I showed you this sample VoiceThread. 00:09:48.330 --> 00:09:50.280 align:middle line:90% You can edit it. 00:09:50.280 --> 00:09:52.500 align:middle line:90% You can share it. 00:09:52.500 --> 00:09:55.560 align:middle line:90% You can make a copy. 00:09:55.560 --> 00:10:01.290 align:middle line:84% And I am going to go to Edit, so that you can see the editing. 00:10:01.290 --> 00:10:04.130 align:middle line:84% And later on, this is going to be saved as a video. 00:10:04.130 --> 00:10:08.650 align:middle line:84% You can come back and take a look as needed. 00:10:08.650 --> 00:10:11.620 align:middle line:84% As you see right here, there are all these slides. 00:10:11.620 --> 00:10:16.300 align:middle line:84% These were originally PowerPoint slides that I included here. 00:10:16.300 --> 00:10:20.500 align:middle line:84% I can actually physically edit individual slides. 00:10:20.500 --> 00:10:24.760 align:middle line:90% I can even edit the title. 00:10:24.760 --> 00:10:29.440 align:middle line:84% I can add media, where I can go to my computer-- 00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:36.640 align:middle line:84% media sources, audio recordings, webcam or webcam videos. 00:10:36.640 --> 00:10:42.160 align:middle line:84% I have options here, which are playback settings, which 00:10:42.160 --> 00:10:43.930 align:middle line:84% I'm going to show you in a minute-- copy 00:10:43.930 --> 00:10:46.300 align:middle line:90% this VoiceThread or delete. 00:10:46.300 --> 00:10:49.270 align:middle line:84% I will share with you that when I make a VoiceThread, 00:10:49.270 --> 00:10:52.420 align:middle line:90% the title is always template. 00:10:52.420 --> 00:10:56.110 align:middle line:84% I have a friend who calls hers master. 00:10:56.110 --> 00:10:59.500 align:middle line:84% And I keep them so that when I want to use them again 00:10:59.500 --> 00:11:05.950 align:middle line:84% without student comments, I can just make a copy of it, 00:11:05.950 --> 00:11:10.600 align:middle line:84% and I can put the semester and the class and the year, 00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:12.760 align:middle line:90% so that I can use it again. 00:11:12.760 --> 00:11:17.150 align:middle line:84% I want to show you playback settings. 00:11:17.150 --> 00:11:22.310 align:middle line:84% So these are settings that you can choose to use. 00:11:22.310 --> 00:11:26.720 align:middle line:84% I have enabled threaded commenting, which 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:28.320 align:middle line:90% I will show you in a moment. 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:31.820 align:middle line:84% And Kolleen may be able to show you as well. 00:11:31.820 --> 00:11:34.290 align:middle line:84% There's all these different choices. 00:11:34.290 --> 00:11:37.970 align:middle line:84% I'm going to click on Allow Others to Make a Copy. 00:11:37.970 --> 00:11:42.590 align:middle line:84% And if you join VoiceThread, you can make a copy of mine just 00:11:42.590 --> 00:11:45.410 align:middle line:90% to use and play around with. 00:11:45.410 --> 00:11:47.960 align:middle line:84% And you can save it as your default 00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:53.350 align:middle line:90% if you want, and hit Save. 00:11:53.350 --> 00:12:00.260 align:middle line:84% If I would like to share it with somebody, I can get a link. 00:12:00.260 --> 00:12:02.420 align:middle line:90% I hit View and Comment. 00:12:02.420 --> 00:12:04.490 align:middle line:84% Or if it's a lecture VoiceThread, 00:12:04.490 --> 00:12:06.830 align:middle line:90% I would just hit View. 00:12:06.830 --> 00:12:11.150 align:middle line:84% I copy this, and I take it directly to Canvas, 00:12:11.150 --> 00:12:16.970 align:middle line:84% and open up Canvas and hit the plus URL, 00:12:16.970 --> 00:12:20.000 align:middle line:90% and put it in the URL. 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:23.270 align:middle line:84% And I put it there so that students have access 00:12:23.270 --> 00:12:25.970 align:middle line:90% to the VoiceThread. 00:12:25.970 --> 00:12:28.900 align:middle line:84% I know I'm going very quickly, and I can go back. 00:12:28.900 --> 00:12:33.230 align:middle line:84% But I just wanted to show you some of the different ways 00:12:33.230 --> 00:12:35.690 align:middle line:90% of quickly using VoiceThread. 00:12:35.690 --> 00:12:38.250 align:middle line:84% And I also have a sample video for you 00:12:38.250 --> 00:12:40.700 align:middle line:90% to take a look at later on. 00:12:40.700 --> 00:12:42.790 align:middle line:90% Once I have my slides up-- 00:12:42.790 --> 00:12:45.000 align:middle line:84% - Add-- let me add something, Janet, really quickly. 00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:47.180 align:middle line:90% You can also embed-- 00:12:47.180 --> 00:12:48.800 align:middle line:90% you can embed it on Canvas. 00:12:48.800 --> 00:12:50.750 align:middle line:84% That's how I put them in my Canvas. 00:12:50.750 --> 00:12:54.740 align:middle line:84% Rather than as a link, I embed it onto a Canvas page 00:12:54.740 --> 00:12:56.210 align:middle line:90% or onto a Canvas assignment. 00:12:56.210 --> 00:13:00.270 align:middle line:84% So it's not a full integration like some of the tools, 00:13:00.270 --> 00:13:03.290 align:middle line:84% but just to take out that one extra step of having 00:13:03.290 --> 00:13:05.930 align:middle line:84% my students go to an external URL, 00:13:05.930 --> 00:13:07.850 align:middle line:84% you can embed it on Canvas as well, 00:13:07.850 --> 00:13:09.780 align:middle line:90% which is a really nice feature. 00:13:09.780 --> 00:13:10.370 align:middle line:90% - Thank you. 00:13:10.370 --> 00:13:10.870 align:middle line:90% Yes. 00:13:10.870 --> 00:13:12.730 align:middle line:90% Thank you for sharing that. 00:13:12.730 --> 00:13:14.780 align:middle line:84% And yes it is, especially if you want 00:13:14.780 --> 00:13:18.500 align:middle line:84% to put it within the page of the assignment itself, 00:13:18.500 --> 00:13:20.840 align:middle line:84% so that students aren't hunting around for it. 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.570 align:middle line:90% Thank you. 00:13:23.570 --> 00:13:29.810 align:middle line:84% Once the slide show is up, you can then go to Comment. 00:13:29.810 --> 00:13:31.880 align:middle line:84% And that's going to bring you right back 00:13:31.880 --> 00:13:39.926 align:middle line:84% to the very front slide, just like I showed you before, 00:13:39.926 --> 00:13:43.000 align:middle line:90% or the slide that we were on. 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:45.010 align:middle line:90% And so I have this slide here. 00:13:45.010 --> 00:13:49.705 align:middle line:84% You can hit the Comment and have it go let's just get it 00:13:49.705 --> 00:13:52.390 align:middle line:90% on pause, which I'm doing. 00:13:52.390 --> 00:13:56.980 align:middle line:84% And what's great is you can respond here 00:13:56.980 --> 00:13:59.140 align:middle line:90% for an initial response. 00:13:59.140 --> 00:14:02.120 align:middle line:84% Or you can respond to somebody specifically, 00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:05.500 align:middle line:84% which is called the threading, by hitting the arrow. 00:14:05.500 --> 00:14:12.190 align:middle line:84% And I'm going to create a little text here that says, thanks. 00:14:12.190 --> 00:14:14.760 align:middle line:90% I'm going to save it. 00:14:14.760 --> 00:14:18.990 align:middle line:84% And you see here that it is its own special thread. 00:14:18.990 --> 00:14:21.660 align:middle line:84% And that is something that I show students 00:14:21.660 --> 00:14:24.060 align:middle line:84% at the very beginning when we use this, 00:14:24.060 --> 00:14:27.000 align:middle line:84% so that they understand how to respond specifically 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:28.290 align:middle line:90% to students. 00:14:28.290 --> 00:14:31.440 align:middle line:84% What I like about these comments and things 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.100 align:middle line:84% is that there is an option to edit, 00:14:35.100 --> 00:14:37.485 align:middle line:84% and there is always an option to delete. 00:14:37.485 --> 00:14:41.300 align:middle line:90% 00:14:41.300 --> 00:14:44.595 align:middle line:84% I'm going to show you one more just quick-- 00:14:44.595 --> 00:14:45.660 align:middle line:90% To Slide. 00:14:45.660 --> 00:14:50.790 align:middle line:90% 00:14:50.790 --> 00:14:55.410 align:middle line:84% When I'm done with my actual handy dandy VoiceThread, 00:14:55.410 --> 00:14:57.420 align:middle line:90% I'm going to go home. 00:14:57.420 --> 00:15:07.375 align:middle line:84% And I have a sample ready for you right here. 00:15:07.375 --> 00:15:12.250 align:middle line:90% 00:15:12.250 --> 00:15:15.190 align:middle line:84% I have a short simple VoiceThread, 00:15:15.190 --> 00:15:18.580 align:middle line:84% and the VoiceThread that-- the VoiceThreads that you've used 00:15:18.580 --> 00:15:21.010 align:middle line:90% most recently show at the top. 00:15:21.010 --> 00:15:23.200 align:middle line:84% But you can also go back and search. 00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:25.510 align:middle line:84% And one of the things that I did when I actually did 00:15:25.510 --> 00:15:30.510 align:middle line:84% the closed captioning that Kolleen had shown me last year, 00:15:30.510 --> 00:15:32.440 align:middle line:84% is I went back and I chose Template. 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:37.990 align:middle line:84% And I chose to close caption all those slides. 00:15:37.990 --> 00:15:41.340 align:middle line:84% So I'm going to open up this one right now. 00:15:41.340 --> 00:15:44.280 align:middle line:84% And I believe that I have not requested 00:15:44.280 --> 00:15:47.500 align:middle line:84% to close caption the first slide, but maybe I did. 00:15:47.500 --> 00:15:49.678 align:middle line:90% I'm going to look here. 00:15:49.678 --> 00:15:51.095 align:middle line:84% I'm going to go to Closed Caption. 00:15:51.095 --> 00:15:54.960 align:middle line:90% 00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:56.970 align:middle line:90% Yes, I did make the request. 00:15:56.970 --> 00:15:58.260 align:middle line:90% I was hoping I did not yet. 00:15:58.260 --> 00:15:59.070 align:middle line:90% But I'm sorry. 00:15:59.070 --> 00:16:02.400 align:middle line:84% Up here is where you choose the language. 00:16:02.400 --> 00:16:06.240 align:middle line:84% And then over here would be where you click Order, 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:07.810 align:middle line:90% and then you hit OK. 00:16:07.810 --> 00:16:10.830 align:middle line:84% And once the captions come onto your VoiceThread, 00:16:10.830 --> 00:16:14.140 align:middle line:84% they send you an email for every single slide. 00:16:14.140 --> 00:16:15.300 align:middle line:90% So that's helpful. 00:16:15.300 --> 00:16:21.630 align:middle line:84% This particular VoiceThread, I have my verbal comments here. 00:16:21.630 --> 00:16:23.040 align:middle line:90% I just had two slides. 00:16:23.040 --> 00:16:25.830 align:middle line:84% This was a practice VoiceThread that I 00:16:25.830 --> 00:16:28.260 align:middle line:84% wanted them to share about what they 00:16:28.260 --> 00:16:34.760 align:middle line:84% would like to learn about in terms of this English class. 00:16:34.760 --> 00:16:36.570 align:middle line:90% It was just very simple. 00:16:36.570 --> 00:16:37.570 align:middle line:90% I have one here. 00:16:37.570 --> 00:16:40.225 align:middle line:84% Here's where I'm going to order here. 00:16:40.225 --> 00:16:42.160 align:middle line:84% I'm going to just show that to you. 00:16:42.160 --> 00:16:43.585 align:middle line:90% Yay. 00:16:43.585 --> 00:16:46.850 align:middle line:90% I just had it out of order. 00:16:46.850 --> 00:16:47.790 align:middle line:90% Nope. 00:16:47.790 --> 00:16:48.730 align:middle line:90% It's not. 00:16:48.730 --> 00:16:49.230 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:16:49.230 --> 00:16:50.550 align:middle line:90% And you can also upload. 00:16:50.550 --> 00:16:53.920 align:middle line:84% And this slide just asks what I know-- so what I know, 00:16:53.920 --> 00:16:55.420 align:middle line:90% what I want to learn. 00:16:55.420 --> 00:16:58.390 align:middle line:84% You can take screenshots, which if you're 00:16:58.390 --> 00:17:02.020 align:middle line:84% doing any sort of math class, engineering class, anything 00:17:02.020 --> 00:17:03.970 align:middle line:90% else, you can take screenshots. 00:17:03.970 --> 00:17:06.590 align:middle line:84% You can include videos, et cetera. 00:17:06.590 --> 00:17:14.359 align:middle line:90% 00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:19.550 align:middle line:84% And Kolleen, would you like to add anything before you share 00:17:19.550 --> 00:17:21.425 align:middle line:90% your own VoiceThread slides? 00:17:21.425 --> 00:17:23.950 align:middle line:90% 00:17:23.950 --> 00:17:24.450 align:middle line:90% - No. 00:17:24.450 --> 00:17:26.176 align:middle line:90% I don't think so. 00:17:26.176 --> 00:17:26.676 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:17:26.676 --> 00:17:29.840 align:middle line:90% 00:17:29.840 --> 00:17:30.340 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:17:30.340 --> 00:17:35.460 align:middle line:84% So Kolleen, I'm going to stop share. 00:17:35.460 --> 00:17:38.430 align:middle line:84% And if you're able to share your own screen, 00:17:38.430 --> 00:17:39.340 align:middle line:90% that would be great. 00:17:39.340 --> 00:17:41.970 align:middle line:84% We did not work that out ahead of time. 00:17:41.970 --> 00:17:44.040 align:middle line:84% You might be able to, you may not. 00:17:44.040 --> 00:17:48.660 align:middle line:84% But I'm going to ask you to try and share your screen. 00:17:48.660 --> 00:17:50.350 align:middle line:90% If not, I'll help out. 00:17:50.350 --> 00:17:54.260 align:middle line:90% 00:17:54.260 --> 00:17:55.420 align:middle line:90% Awesome. 00:17:55.420 --> 00:17:56.570 align:middle line:90% - You're seeing my screen? 00:17:56.570 --> 00:17:57.080 align:middle line:90% - Yes. 00:17:57.080 --> 00:17:57.540 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:17:57.540 --> 00:17:58.040 align:middle line:90% Cool. 00:17:58.040 --> 00:18:01.410 align:middle line:90% 00:18:01.410 --> 00:18:01.910 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:18:01.910 --> 00:18:09.760 align:middle line:84% So I added a couple of sample VoiceThreads here as well. 00:18:09.760 --> 00:18:13.540 align:middle line:84% One that I've used previously with students that has 00:18:13.540 --> 00:18:15.550 align:middle line:90% the student responses on it. 00:18:15.550 --> 00:18:19.180 align:middle line:84% And then one that I just created earlier this week. 00:18:19.180 --> 00:18:22.580 align:middle line:84% And so this one is actually a copy, so it's available to you 00:18:22.580 --> 00:18:23.080 align:middle line:90% guys. 00:18:23.080 --> 00:18:26.130 align:middle line:84% If you want to play around on it, you can. 00:18:26.130 --> 00:18:27.910 align:middle line:90% So let me open this one up. 00:18:27.910 --> 00:18:30.070 align:middle line:84% And then I'll show you how it looks when it's 00:18:30.070 --> 00:18:33.470 align:middle line:90% embedded in Canvas as well. 00:18:33.470 --> 00:18:36.950 align:middle line:84% So this is-- let me move myself out of the way. 00:18:36.950 --> 00:18:40.120 align:middle line:90% 00:18:40.120 --> 00:18:45.040 align:middle line:84% So this is-- typically, I would have done this 00:18:45.040 --> 00:18:47.150 align:middle line:90% as a lecture in the class. 00:18:47.150 --> 00:18:49.630 align:middle line:84% And then we would have a discussion afterwards. 00:18:49.630 --> 00:18:50.980 align:middle line:90% It's a literature class. 00:18:50.980 --> 00:18:55.690 align:middle line:84% So instead, I have it all in one PowerPoint. 00:18:55.690 --> 00:18:57.880 align:middle line:84% As Janet said, I made it as a PowerPoint, 00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:01.720 align:middle line:84% and then I uploaded it to VoiceThread. 00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:06.500 align:middle line:84% And I did narrations for most of the lecture slides. 00:19:06.500 --> 00:19:07.570 align:middle line:90% - Hi everyone. 00:19:07.570 --> 00:19:11.045 align:middle line:84% So I am going to go over our literature of the American 00:19:11.045 --> 00:19:11.710 align:middle line:90% South. 00:19:11.710 --> 00:19:14.950 align:middle line:84% - So I just requested the closed captions. 00:19:14.950 --> 00:19:16.850 align:middle line:90% So awesome. 00:19:16.850 --> 00:19:17.350 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:19:17.350 --> 00:19:20.260 align:middle line:84% Or maybe I didn't request closed captions for this one. 00:19:20.260 --> 00:19:22.680 align:middle line:84% So if you need to request, you just 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:27.310 align:middle line:84% select the Language, and then Order. 00:19:27.310 --> 00:19:30.275 align:middle line:84% And then it should be ready in about four days. 00:19:30.275 --> 00:19:31.150 align:middle line:90% - Thank you, Kolleen. 00:19:31.150 --> 00:19:34.960 align:middle line:84% I was-- I tried to do that myself [INAUDIBLE].. 00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:37.120 align:middle line:84% - So I just go through and I comment. 00:19:37.120 --> 00:19:42.910 align:middle line:84% I did a little video for each of my slides. 00:19:42.910 --> 00:19:47.155 align:middle line:84% And some of them didn't need narrations. 00:19:47.155 --> 00:19:48.520 align:middle line:90% Let's see. 00:19:48.520 --> 00:19:51.850 align:middle line:90% And then-- move forward. 00:19:51.850 --> 00:19:54.850 align:middle line:84% So then I have the discussion questions 00:19:54.850 --> 00:19:56.530 align:middle line:90% that I want the students to do. 00:19:56.530 --> 00:19:59.560 align:middle line:84% So there's 30-something students in the class. 00:19:59.560 --> 00:20:01.690 align:middle line:84% So I broke them into three groups. 00:20:01.690 --> 00:20:04.930 align:middle line:84% So each of them will answer one question. 00:20:04.930 --> 00:20:08.320 align:middle line:84% And then they'll reply to the other two questions. 00:20:08.320 --> 00:20:10.840 align:middle line:84% So I just wrote the names of the students here 00:20:10.840 --> 00:20:14.200 align:middle line:84% that will be doing the original responses, and then 00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:15.520 align:middle line:90% the replies. 00:20:15.520 --> 00:20:19.210 align:middle line:84% So it's a fairly close simulation 00:20:19.210 --> 00:20:21.970 align:middle line:84% to what we would have done in class, starting 00:20:21.970 --> 00:20:24.760 align:middle line:84% with my lecture, and then breaking into groups 00:20:24.760 --> 00:20:29.170 align:middle line:84% and having them talk about some ideas from the lecture 00:20:29.170 --> 00:20:31.570 align:middle line:90% and relating it to the reading. 00:20:31.570 --> 00:20:34.180 align:middle line:90% So that's one. 00:20:34.180 --> 00:20:35.256 align:middle line:90% Let me see. 00:20:35.256 --> 00:20:36.190 align:middle line:90% Oh, OK. 00:20:36.190 --> 00:20:42.130 align:middle line:84% Here's my Canvas page, if you can see that. 00:20:42.130 --> 00:20:47.350 align:middle line:84% So I have the instructions for how to get onto VoiceThread 00:20:47.350 --> 00:20:51.610 align:middle line:84% and what the actual assignment is, some details about how 00:20:51.610 --> 00:20:53.560 align:middle line:90% long their responses should be. 00:20:53.560 --> 00:20:57.040 align:middle line:84% Because sometimes if you don't tell them, they just say, 00:20:57.040 --> 00:20:58.080 align:middle line:90% I agree. 00:20:58.080 --> 00:20:58.810 align:middle line:90% Sounds good. 00:20:58.810 --> 00:20:59.390 align:middle line:90% I'm like, no. 00:20:59.390 --> 00:21:01.610 align:middle line:90% That's not a response. 00:21:01.610 --> 00:21:03.820 align:middle line:84% So some responses that show them-- 00:21:03.820 --> 00:21:06.460 align:middle line:84% or directions of how to do the responses. 00:21:06.460 --> 00:21:12.490 align:middle line:84% And then here's the embedded VoiceThread. 00:21:12.490 --> 00:21:15.130 align:middle line:84% And as I told Micky in the Chat, you 00:21:15.130 --> 00:21:18.040 align:middle line:84% get the iframe code on the share screen. 00:21:18.040 --> 00:21:21.540 align:middle line:90% And then some troubleshooting. 00:21:21.540 --> 00:21:23.510 align:middle line:84% So this is the one that's actually live. 00:21:23.510 --> 00:21:28.170 align:middle line:84% And one of my students has Chat on, so you can see-- 00:21:28.170 --> 00:21:29.450 align:middle line:90% - Hi everyone. 00:21:29.450 --> 00:21:31.580 align:middle line:90% Happy quarantine. 00:21:31.580 --> 00:21:33.710 align:middle line:90% So question number one-- 00:21:33.710 --> 00:21:36.110 align:middle line:84% - So you can see that she's online 00:21:36.110 --> 00:21:44.280 align:middle line:84% and responding to the discussion question, which is pretty cool. 00:21:44.280 --> 00:21:47.920 align:middle line:90% Any questions about that? 00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:52.140 align:middle line:84% - And you can go ahead and unmute yourselves if you do. 00:21:52.140 --> 00:21:53.690 align:middle line:84% I'm going to check the Chat, too. 00:21:53.690 --> 00:21:57.040 align:middle line:90% 00:21:57.040 --> 00:21:59.130 align:middle line:84% Can you-- one of the questions is, 00:21:59.130 --> 00:22:02.510 align:middle line:84% can you export saved VoiceThread as a regular video? 00:22:02.510 --> 00:22:07.400 align:middle line:84% And can you embed a window with a video of the presenter? 00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:08.600 align:middle line:90% I don't think so. 00:22:08.600 --> 00:22:09.920 align:middle line:90% Do you know, Kolleen? 00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:11.490 align:middle line:90% - No. 00:22:11.490 --> 00:22:12.260 align:middle line:90% I don't know. 00:22:12.260 --> 00:22:15.750 align:middle line:90% I've never attempted that. 00:22:15.750 --> 00:22:16.250 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:22:16.250 --> 00:22:17.140 align:middle line:90% How to embed? 00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:18.450 align:middle line:90% Is there an embed code? 00:22:18.450 --> 00:22:20.120 align:middle line:90% Can you say that one more time? 00:22:20.120 --> 00:22:21.590 align:middle line:90% - Yes, I can. 00:22:21.590 --> 00:22:24.980 align:middle line:90% Let me get into VoiceThread. 00:22:24.980 --> 00:22:30.548 align:middle line:84% So if I'm in my VoiceThread, and I go to Share-- 00:22:30.548 --> 00:22:31.440 align:middle line:90% get out of the Chat. 00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:36.210 align:middle line:90% 00:22:36.210 --> 00:22:36.710 align:middle line:90% Sorry. 00:22:36.710 --> 00:22:44.860 align:middle line:84% If I go into VoiceThread, and I go to Share, Basic, Embed. 00:22:44.860 --> 00:22:47.140 align:middle line:84% And then I get the iframe code there. 00:22:47.140 --> 00:22:50.310 align:middle line:84% So I can just embed that in my Canvas. 00:22:50.310 --> 00:22:50.810 align:middle line:90% - Right. 00:22:50.810 --> 00:22:54.080 align:middle line:84% So you see that up there, there's the link and the embed, 00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:58.330 align:middle line:90% whichever one you choose to use. 00:22:58.330 --> 00:22:58.890 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:22:58.890 --> 00:23:00.010 align:middle line:90% Thank you for that. 00:23:00.010 --> 00:23:06.340 align:middle line:84% And Kolleen's instructions are connected to this slideshow, 00:23:06.340 --> 00:23:09.690 align:middle line:84% so if you are worried about getting her instructions. 00:23:09.690 --> 00:23:10.410 align:middle line:90% Those are great. 00:23:10.410 --> 00:23:12.960 align:middle line:84% I want to make sure I give those to my students, too. 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.410 align:middle line:84% They are there, and you will have access to them. 00:23:15.410 --> 00:23:17.730 align:middle line:84% - It's basically-- I just basically copied what I put 00:23:17.730 --> 00:23:23.520 align:middle line:84% on Canvas onto a Google Doc, so you you're free to use that 00:23:23.520 --> 00:23:25.290 align:middle line:90% as well. 00:23:25.290 --> 00:23:29.640 align:middle line:84% So that was-- this is more like of a lecture discussion. 00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:30.900 align:middle line:90% I'll quickly show you. 00:23:30.900 --> 00:23:34.170 align:middle line:84% I also-- this is from a couple of semesters 00:23:34.170 --> 00:23:36.090 align:middle line:90% ago in an online class. 00:23:36.090 --> 00:23:40.920 align:middle line:90% This is pre-Corona craziness. 00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:43.680 align:middle line:84% I just used this as a mid-semester check-in 00:23:43.680 --> 00:23:45.130 align:middle line:90% with my students. 00:23:45.130 --> 00:23:46.370 align:middle line:90% So just really simple. 00:23:46.370 --> 00:23:48.120 align:middle line:90% I ask them, how's it going? 00:23:48.120 --> 00:23:49.800 align:middle line:90% What's working for you? 00:23:49.800 --> 00:23:52.560 align:middle line:84% What's not, a couple of questions. 00:23:52.560 --> 00:23:54.120 align:middle line:84% But it was nice, because they got 00:23:54.120 --> 00:23:56.590 align:middle line:84% to come online and chat with one another. 00:23:56.590 --> 00:23:57.460 align:middle line:90% - Hi, everybody. 00:23:57.460 --> 00:23:59.970 align:middle line:90% It's Delia. 00:23:59.970 --> 00:24:01.560 align:middle line:90% And so-- 00:24:01.560 --> 00:24:02.520 align:middle line:90% - This was a video. 00:24:02.520 --> 00:24:06.600 align:middle line:84% It's not-- sometimes it's a little slow to load. 00:24:06.600 --> 00:24:07.460 align:middle line:90% Let's see. 00:24:07.460 --> 00:24:13.310 align:middle line:90% 00:24:13.310 --> 00:24:13.810 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:24:13.810 --> 00:24:14.780 align:middle line:90% There she is. 00:24:14.780 --> 00:24:15.710 align:middle line:90% - Hi, everybody. 00:24:15.710 --> 00:24:17.300 align:middle line:90% It's Delia. 00:24:17.300 --> 00:24:22.190 align:middle line:84% And so far in this class, what's really working-- 00:24:22.190 --> 00:24:25.220 align:middle line:84% - So it's just-- it's nice to be able to see the students, 00:24:25.220 --> 00:24:28.010 align:middle line:90% and for them to see one another. 00:24:28.010 --> 00:24:32.360 align:middle line:84% So it doesn't have to be as-- if you're doing check-ins online, 00:24:32.360 --> 00:24:34.340 align:middle line:84% as you're working remotely with your students, 00:24:34.340 --> 00:24:37.640 align:middle line:84% if you're doing check-ins, or you just want them to still 00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:40.250 align:middle line:84% feel a little bit connected to one another, 00:24:40.250 --> 00:24:45.920 align:middle line:84% you can just make a really simple how's it going slide. 00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:47.840 align:middle line:90% And they can respond. 00:24:47.840 --> 00:24:50.030 align:middle line:90% So it's pretty intuitive. 00:24:50.030 --> 00:24:53.150 align:middle line:84% I haven't had many students have issues navigating it. 00:24:53.150 --> 00:24:56.270 align:middle line:90% So, so far, so good. 00:24:56.270 --> 00:24:58.850 align:middle line:84% - And it is free for them, but they 00:24:58.850 --> 00:25:02.540 align:middle line:84% do have to create a VoiceThread account. 00:25:02.540 --> 00:25:07.370 align:middle line:90% And so that is-- 00:25:07.370 --> 00:25:08.462 align:middle line:90% it's easy to use. 00:25:08.462 --> 00:25:09.920 align:middle line:84% I mean, if you just say, it's free. 00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:14.718 align:middle line:84% Just download the-- or create an account, 00:25:14.718 --> 00:25:16.760 align:middle line:84% they're able to do it, even if you didn't save it 00:25:16.760 --> 00:25:18.155 align:middle line:90% with that VoiceThread.com. 00:25:18.155 --> 00:25:21.610 align:middle line:90% But that's where it is. 00:25:21.610 --> 00:25:22.270 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:25:22.270 --> 00:25:24.580 align:middle line:84% So getting back to our slide show. 00:25:24.580 --> 00:25:25.600 align:middle line:90% Thank you, Kolleen. 00:25:25.600 --> 00:25:27.830 align:middle line:90% That was great. 00:25:27.830 --> 00:25:28.730 align:middle line:90% Fantastic. 00:25:28.730 --> 00:25:38.520 align:middle line:90% 00:25:38.520 --> 00:25:40.400 align:middle line:84% Is everybody seeing the actual screen? 00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:43.428 align:middle line:90% 00:25:43.428 --> 00:25:45.740 align:middle line:90% I am worried that you're not. 00:25:45.740 --> 00:25:46.450 align:middle line:90% I'm sorry. 00:25:46.450 --> 00:25:47.930 align:middle line:90% There we go. 00:25:47.930 --> 00:25:51.050 align:middle line:90% I'm going to try this again. 00:25:51.050 --> 00:25:54.345 align:middle line:84% And Kolleen, did you see something new in the Chat? 00:25:54.345 --> 00:26:00.740 align:middle line:90% 00:26:00.740 --> 00:26:01.880 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:02.890 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:26:02.890 --> 00:26:09.600 align:middle line:84% So I wanted to share the benefits of VoiceThread, 00:26:09.600 --> 00:26:13.410 align:middle line:90% because there are so many. 00:26:13.410 --> 00:26:16.440 align:middle line:84% And I was in a session this morning 00:26:16.440 --> 00:26:19.140 align:middle line:84% just right before this one about being equity-minded, 00:26:19.140 --> 00:26:22.410 align:middle line:84% with Dr. Frank Harris and Luke Wood. 00:26:22.410 --> 00:26:25.080 align:middle line:84% And one of the things that they mentioned 00:26:25.080 --> 00:26:28.260 align:middle line:84% about being equitable to students, particularly students 00:26:28.260 --> 00:26:32.640 align:middle line:84% of color who may not have the same technology that we do, 00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:37.110 align:middle line:84% is that we really should be flexible and give students 00:26:37.110 --> 00:26:39.300 align:middle line:90% asynchronous alternatives. 00:26:39.300 --> 00:26:41.270 align:middle line:90% And VoiceThread allows for that. 00:26:41.270 --> 00:26:44.760 align:middle line:84% In fact, it's obviously completely asynchronous. 00:26:44.760 --> 00:26:50.490 align:middle line:84% And it gives them time to work on their responses 00:26:50.490 --> 00:26:51.570 align:middle line:90% when they have time. 00:26:51.570 --> 00:26:54.085 align:middle line:84% We don't know what's going on with them in terms of work. 00:26:54.085 --> 00:26:55.710 align:middle line:84% We don't know what's going on with them 00:26:55.710 --> 00:26:58.480 align:middle line:84% in terms of preparing for their own children, 00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:03.030 align:middle line:84% their spouses, maybe elderly family members. 00:27:03.030 --> 00:27:07.650 align:middle line:84% And so giving them this asynchronous alternative 00:27:07.650 --> 00:27:10.890 align:middle line:84% and something that they could do on their phone 00:27:10.890 --> 00:27:14.160 align:middle line:90% is really important. 00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:16.245 align:middle line:84% Students need to be taught how to communicate 00:27:16.245 --> 00:27:18.610 align:middle line:90% in mixed communicative modes. 00:27:18.610 --> 00:27:19.290 align:middle line:90% This does this. 00:27:19.290 --> 00:27:20.910 align:middle line:90% It's multimodal. 00:27:20.910 --> 00:27:24.240 align:middle line:90% So you're seeing, your hearing. 00:27:24.240 --> 00:27:26.670 align:middle line:84% And again, you can utilize videos. 00:27:26.670 --> 00:27:29.040 align:middle line:84% You can link YouTube videos and have 00:27:29.040 --> 00:27:35.310 align:middle line:84% students look at a short piece of video, and then comment. 00:27:35.310 --> 00:27:38.790 align:middle line:84% Obviously, we are all interacting 00:27:38.790 --> 00:27:40.740 align:middle line:90% beyond the classroom. 00:27:40.740 --> 00:27:44.150 align:middle line:84% The interaction is central to worthwhile asynchronous 00:27:44.150 --> 00:27:45.030 align:middle line:90% communication. 00:27:45.030 --> 00:27:48.540 align:middle line:84% And even in the short little clips that Kolleen showed, 00:27:48.540 --> 00:27:52.290 align:middle line:84% what was lovely about them is you could see how personable 00:27:52.290 --> 00:27:53.910 align:middle line:84% they were, how much-- you know, you 00:27:53.910 --> 00:27:55.680 align:middle line:84% were able to see their personality, 00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:58.560 align:middle line:84% in just a really short little couple of seconds. 00:27:58.560 --> 00:28:03.150 align:middle line:84% And so having that video option is really positive. 00:28:03.150 --> 00:28:05.670 align:middle line:90% Learning retention increases. 00:28:05.670 --> 00:28:08.010 align:middle line:84% Again, it's equitable and empowering to invite 00:28:08.010 --> 00:28:09.700 align:middle line:90% students to join. 00:28:09.700 --> 00:28:12.240 align:middle line:84% And it allows students to be creative. 00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:14.770 align:middle line:84% And they're really easy to create and use. 00:28:14.770 --> 00:28:16.490 align:middle line:90% So you can use the longer ones. 00:28:16.490 --> 00:28:19.920 align:middle line:84% I show-- both Kolleen and I gave you samples 00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:22.470 align:middle line:90% that were both short and long. 00:28:22.470 --> 00:28:25.580 align:middle line:84% You can literally create a VoiceThread in five minutes. 00:28:25.580 --> 00:28:28.560 align:middle line:90% And again, if you are choosing-- 00:28:28.560 --> 00:28:31.360 align:middle line:84% let's say you want to use it today. 00:28:31.360 --> 00:28:31.860 align:middle line:90% OK? 00:28:31.860 --> 00:28:39.630 align:middle line:84% You can opt to just type your response, so 00:28:39.630 --> 00:28:44.640 align:middle line:84% that you have both a oral and a written response 00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:47.870 align:middle line:84% until those captions can be added. 00:28:47.870 --> 00:28:53.510 align:middle line:84% Kolleen, are there any comments or questions in the Chat area? 00:28:53.510 --> 00:28:56.890 align:middle line:90% I'm seeing it flash, so-- 00:28:56.890 --> 00:28:59.380 align:middle line:84% - They're just asking where things will be available. 00:28:59.380 --> 00:29:01.390 align:middle line:84% So I'm just-- we're going to post everything 00:29:01.390 --> 00:29:03.550 align:middle line:84% on the remote teaching Canvas page. 00:29:03.550 --> 00:29:04.050 align:middle line:90% - Yes. 00:29:04.050 --> 00:29:10.020 align:middle line:84% And it will be under, I believe it's page two, where 00:29:10.020 --> 00:29:12.180 align:middle line:90% you see VoiceThread. 00:29:12.180 --> 00:29:14.190 align:middle line:84% I'm going to put that in right after. 00:29:14.190 --> 00:29:18.030 align:middle line:90% I am having trouble at every-- 00:29:18.030 --> 00:29:19.110 align:middle line:90% sorry. 00:29:19.110 --> 00:29:20.360 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:29:20.360 --> 00:29:21.060 align:middle line:90% Sorry. 00:29:21.060 --> 00:29:28.270 align:middle line:84% My arrows are not working with this particular Zoom session. 00:29:28.270 --> 00:29:29.120 align:middle line:90% I don't know why. 00:29:29.120 --> 00:29:29.620 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:29:29.620 --> 00:29:32.080 align:middle line:90% So going into other logistics-- 00:29:32.080 --> 00:29:34.330 align:middle line:84% and, Kolleen, I'm going to go back and forth with you, 00:29:34.330 --> 00:29:37.510 align:middle line:84% because we probably all do things differently 00:29:37.510 --> 00:29:40.420 align:middle line:90% in terms of using VoiceThread. 00:29:40.420 --> 00:29:44.035 align:middle line:84% In terms of grading, what I have done with VoiceThread, 00:29:44.035 --> 00:29:45.910 align:middle line:90% is I have students-- 00:29:45.910 --> 00:29:48.430 align:middle line:84% I tell them how many slides they should comment on 00:29:48.430 --> 00:29:52.090 align:middle line:84% and how many students they should respond to. 00:29:52.090 --> 00:29:55.000 align:middle line:84% And I'm going to be using Kolleen's 00:29:55.000 --> 00:29:56.800 align:middle line:84% wonderful instructions about what 00:29:56.800 --> 00:30:00.070 align:middle line:90% a good response looks like. 00:30:00.070 --> 00:30:05.260 align:middle line:84% And you can decide what that is for you in your area. 00:30:05.260 --> 00:30:08.350 align:middle line:84% Then I have students come back to Canvas, 00:30:08.350 --> 00:30:11.300 align:middle line:84% and I have them in a very quick little text 00:30:11.300 --> 00:30:16.060 align:middle line:84% box note the date that they responded, 00:30:16.060 --> 00:30:18.340 align:middle line:84% and who they responded to, as well 00:30:18.340 --> 00:30:21.575 align:middle line:84% as a couple of key takeaways or ideas 00:30:21.575 --> 00:30:23.590 align:middle line:84% that they learned from participating 00:30:23.590 --> 00:30:25.360 align:middle line:90% in the VoiceThread. 00:30:25.360 --> 00:30:28.090 align:middle line:90% What do you do, Kolleen? 00:30:28.090 --> 00:30:32.140 align:middle line:84% - I just go on VoiceThread-- it's a little annoying that 00:30:32.140 --> 00:30:34.990 align:middle line:84% it's not integrated with Canvas in that way. 00:30:34.990 --> 00:30:39.220 align:middle line:84% So I just do go on with my roster kind of next to me. 00:30:39.220 --> 00:30:41.410 align:middle line:90% And I play through. 00:30:41.410 --> 00:30:46.430 align:middle line:84% And you can speed up the play, which is nice 00:30:46.430 --> 00:30:47.870 align:middle line:90% when there's a lot of posts. 00:30:47.870 --> 00:30:51.340 align:middle line:84% So they sound like chipmunks, but you get through it faster. 00:30:51.340 --> 00:30:53.450 align:middle line:84% And I just kind of check off, like, reply, 00:30:53.450 --> 00:30:55.090 align:middle line:90% response, reply, response. 00:30:55.090 --> 00:30:57.870 align:middle line:84% I just grade it like a discussion in that way. 00:30:57.870 --> 00:30:58.390 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:30:58.390 --> 00:30:58.690 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:30:58.690 --> 00:30:59.190 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:30:59.190 --> 00:31:03.560 align:middle line:84% So there are a couple of different ways to handle it. 00:31:03.560 --> 00:31:04.690 align:middle line:90% I find that students-- 00:31:04.690 --> 00:31:07.400 align:middle line:90% 00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:10.500 align:middle line:84% with me making them go back, it is an extra step, 00:31:10.500 --> 00:31:11.870 align:middle line:90% so that's a con. 00:31:11.870 --> 00:31:15.510 align:middle line:84% But a pro of doing it that way is that they reflect. 00:31:15.510 --> 00:31:18.800 align:middle line:84% And basically, I'm doing it on the honor 00:31:18.800 --> 00:31:20.390 align:middle line:90% system in that particular way. 00:31:20.390 --> 00:31:22.340 align:middle line:84% But every once in a while I double-check. 00:31:22.340 --> 00:31:23.340 align:middle line:90% I'm like, wait a minute. 00:31:23.340 --> 00:31:24.540 align:middle line:90% Did I see so-and-so? 00:31:24.540 --> 00:31:26.300 align:middle line:90% And yeah, usually I do. 00:31:26.300 --> 00:31:31.440 align:middle line:84% So they tend to be very honest about this. 00:31:31.440 --> 00:31:35.510 align:middle line:84% I do-- a rule of thumb about commenting back 00:31:35.510 --> 00:31:39.980 align:middle line:84% to students in a VoiceThread, is that-- and I heard this 00:31:39.980 --> 00:31:43.640 align:middle line:84% at a conference recently, is that if you're commenting back 00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:46.550 align:middle line:84% to approximately 25% of your students-- 00:31:46.550 --> 00:31:50.990 align:middle line:84% so if you have a class of 30, that's 5. 00:31:50.990 --> 00:31:53.570 align:middle line:90% Excuse me-- not 25%, 20%-- 00:31:53.570 --> 00:31:57.920 align:middle line:84% about 5 students out of 30, that's enough. 00:31:57.920 --> 00:31:59.900 align:middle line:84% And as long as you're trying to vary it 00:31:59.900 --> 00:32:01.850 align:middle line:84% just like you would in a discussion forum, 00:32:01.850 --> 00:32:05.450 align:middle line:84% students do feel like they've been heard. 00:32:05.450 --> 00:32:09.290 align:middle line:84% Do you comment back to students on VoiceThread, Kolleen? 00:32:09.290 --> 00:32:11.000 align:middle line:90% - It depends on the assignment. 00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:15.350 align:middle line:84% On the literature one that I showed you 00:32:15.350 --> 00:32:17.390 align:middle line:84% where there was three main questions, 00:32:17.390 --> 00:32:21.200 align:middle line:84% I'll probably do a summative comment at the end. 00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:22.850 align:middle line:84% Once everybody has responded, I'll 00:32:22.850 --> 00:32:27.860 align:middle line:84% probably do a comment where I highlight some of the themes 00:32:27.860 --> 00:32:31.820 align:middle line:84% that I heard, or give them some things to think about further. 00:32:31.820 --> 00:32:33.650 align:middle line:90% For the check-in ones, I do. 00:32:33.650 --> 00:32:36.250 align:middle line:84% If they're doing it as a check-in, I just-- 00:32:36.250 --> 00:32:38.150 align:middle line:84% just to let them know that I heard them, 00:32:38.150 --> 00:32:40.635 align:middle line:90% and that I'm here, too. 00:32:40.635 --> 00:32:42.260 align:middle line:84% Because that's what the-- to me, that's 00:32:42.260 --> 00:32:45.170 align:middle line:84% what the purpose of the check-in is, to say that, hey, 00:32:45.170 --> 00:32:47.150 align:middle line:90% we're all still here. 00:32:47.150 --> 00:32:49.790 align:middle line:84% So I just-- I quickly respond to those. 00:32:49.790 --> 00:32:50.320 align:middle line:90% - Awesome. 00:32:50.320 --> 00:32:50.820 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:32:50.820 --> 00:32:55.490 align:middle line:84% And I'm glad you mentioned that, too. 00:32:55.490 --> 00:32:58.400 align:middle line:84% One of the things that you could do too if you-- 00:32:58.400 --> 00:33:02.730 align:middle line:84% I like how you divided up the students into groups. 00:33:02.730 --> 00:33:05.690 align:middle line:84% One of the things that I started doing a little 00:33:05.690 --> 00:33:08.750 align:middle line:84% while ago is now I have it by last name. 00:33:08.750 --> 00:33:11.690 align:middle line:84% And I hope that I get enough students in each group. 00:33:11.690 --> 00:33:15.278 align:middle line:84% And if your last name starts with A through F, for example, 00:33:15.278 --> 00:33:16.820 align:middle line:84% then you're going to answer this one. 00:33:16.820 --> 00:33:19.980 align:middle line:84% If your last name's between this and this, 00:33:19.980 --> 00:33:21.650 align:middle line:84% and so on and so forth, so that I 00:33:21.650 --> 00:33:24.800 align:middle line:84% don't have to go back and make the VoiceThread later on. 00:33:24.800 --> 00:33:27.980 align:middle line:90% But even so, Kolleen doesn't-- 00:33:27.980 --> 00:33:31.160 align:middle line:84% even if Kolleen uses the same exact VoiceThread 00:33:31.160 --> 00:33:33.830 align:middle line:84% next semester, all she would have to do 00:33:33.830 --> 00:33:37.760 align:middle line:84% is go back and change out those slides with the student 00:33:37.760 --> 00:33:41.450 align:middle line:84% names in them, and not have to remake the entire thing, 00:33:41.450 --> 00:33:43.960 align:middle line:84% not have to redo the comments either. 00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:46.750 align:middle line:90% 00:33:46.750 --> 00:33:47.250 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:33:47.250 --> 00:33:51.930 align:middle line:84% So communicating guidelines-- Kolleen did that, 00:33:51.930 --> 00:33:52.790 align:middle line:90% showcased that. 00:33:52.790 --> 00:33:56.040 align:middle line:84% And you definitely want to communicate your guidelines 00:33:56.040 --> 00:34:00.960 align:middle line:84% about VoiceThread ahead of time if they have never used it. 00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:03.600 align:middle line:84% In terms of how to keep your voice-- 00:34:03.600 --> 00:34:05.310 align:middle line:84% how long to keep a VoiceThread going, 00:34:05.310 --> 00:34:09.030 align:middle line:84% I find that one week is really kind of the limit. 00:34:09.030 --> 00:34:11.880 align:middle line:84% I share with them, OK, today's the day that I'd 00:34:11.880 --> 00:34:17.500 align:middle line:84% like you to begin commenting on this particular VoiceThread. 00:34:17.500 --> 00:34:20.760 align:middle line:84% And I'd like you to go back two or three different times. 00:34:20.760 --> 00:34:23.580 align:middle line:84% And then I remind them OK, tomorrow's the last day. 00:34:23.580 --> 00:34:27.659 align:middle line:84% Or I'll say, today is the last day to comment. 00:34:27.659 --> 00:34:30.600 align:middle line:90% And then we'll close it down. 00:34:30.600 --> 00:34:32.650 align:middle line:90% What do you do, Kolleen? 00:34:32.650 --> 00:34:33.150 align:middle line:90% - Yeah. 00:34:33.150 --> 00:34:36.630 align:middle line:84% I just have it based on what the assignment instructions are. 00:34:36.630 --> 00:34:40.020 align:middle line:84% So usually a week is about right. 00:34:40.020 --> 00:34:42.060 align:middle line:90% I don't physically remove it. 00:34:42.060 --> 00:34:44.909 align:middle line:84% But because-- you know, if they wanted to go back to it, 00:34:44.909 --> 00:34:48.108 align:middle line:84% if they were using it for a brainstorm in preparation 00:34:48.108 --> 00:34:49.650 align:middle line:84% for an essay or something they could. 00:34:49.650 --> 00:34:52.120 align:middle line:90% But I don't know that they do. 00:34:52.120 --> 00:34:52.620 align:middle line:90% But-- 00:34:52.620 --> 00:34:54.330 align:middle line:90% - Right. 00:34:54.330 --> 00:34:54.830 align:middle line:90% No. 00:34:54.830 --> 00:34:55.372 align:middle line:90% - [INAUDIBLE] 00:34:55.372 --> 00:34:56.850 align:middle line:90% - That's good. 00:34:56.850 --> 00:34:57.450 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:34:57.450 --> 00:35:00.840 align:middle line:84% So again, in terms of creating templates and masters-- 00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:07.470 align:middle line:84% every single one I create a template that has my comments. 00:35:07.470 --> 00:35:11.940 align:middle line:84% And when I go and make a copy, I only save my own comments. 00:35:11.940 --> 00:35:15.210 align:middle line:84% The reason why I create the template then-- 00:35:15.210 --> 00:35:18.540 align:middle line:84% because you can make a copy without the teacher's voice, 00:35:18.540 --> 00:35:21.720 align:middle line:84% or with the teacher's comments and not the students. 00:35:21.720 --> 00:35:23.700 align:middle line:84% If I'm commenting back to a student, 00:35:23.700 --> 00:35:25.450 align:middle line:84% I don't want to keep that comment. 00:35:25.450 --> 00:35:28.170 align:middle line:84% So it just makes it easier to keep my template, 00:35:28.170 --> 00:35:30.930 align:middle line:84% and it makes it easier to find it. 00:35:30.930 --> 00:35:31.430 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:35:31.430 --> 00:35:33.780 align:middle line:90% I am experimenting here. 00:35:33.780 --> 00:35:35.230 align:middle line:90% Sorry. 00:35:35.230 --> 00:35:36.510 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:35:36.510 --> 00:35:37.010 align:middle line:90% Sorry. 00:35:37.010 --> 00:35:42.400 align:middle line:84% I'm experimenting with using this particular slide 00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:44.680 align:middle line:90% show with my Zoom. 00:35:44.680 --> 00:35:46.740 align:middle line:84% So I'm sorry if I'm blinding people. 00:35:46.740 --> 00:35:51.820 align:middle line:84% I've never had this issue before. 00:35:51.820 --> 00:35:54.790 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:35:54.790 --> 00:35:58.660 align:middle line:84% Kolleen, are you having trouble with changing from slide 00:35:58.660 --> 00:36:01.180 align:middle line:90% to slide when it's yours? 00:36:01.180 --> 00:36:02.530 align:middle line:90% - I was a little bit, yeah. 00:36:02.530 --> 00:36:03.800 align:middle line:90% - OK. 00:36:03.800 --> 00:36:07.250 align:middle line:84% Because I'm trying to think about-- 00:36:07.250 --> 00:36:09.370 align:middle line:90% because sometimes it's working. 00:36:09.370 --> 00:36:09.870 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:36:09.870 --> 00:36:10.530 align:middle line:90% Here we go. 00:36:10.530 --> 00:36:11.610 align:middle line:90% Here we go. 00:36:11.610 --> 00:36:12.120 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:36:12.120 --> 00:36:14.220 align:middle line:90% Sorry about that. 00:36:14.220 --> 00:36:17.200 align:middle line:84% I wanted to share that I do have a slide here 00:36:17.200 --> 00:36:21.360 align:middle line:84% which gives very specific instructions about how 00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:23.040 align:middle line:84% to create a VoiceThread, because I 00:36:23.040 --> 00:36:25.738 align:middle line:90% know I went through it quickly. 00:36:25.738 --> 00:36:27.780 align:middle line:84% And I'm not going to read all these instructions, 00:36:27.780 --> 00:36:31.680 align:middle line:84% but I do want to share that you create your PowerPoint-- you 00:36:31.680 --> 00:36:33.780 align:middle line:84% don't have to create a PowerPoint. 00:36:33.780 --> 00:36:36.390 align:middle line:84% You can actually type right onto a slide. 00:36:36.390 --> 00:36:39.300 align:middle line:84% I just find that creating a PowerPoint 00:36:39.300 --> 00:36:40.980 align:middle line:90% is a better way to do it. 00:36:40.980 --> 00:36:46.110 align:middle line:84% And when I've made mistakes on slides, I just go back and I-- 00:36:46.110 --> 00:36:50.010 align:middle line:84% instead of starting all over, I just upload a single slide 00:36:50.010 --> 00:36:52.380 align:middle line:90% at a time. 00:36:52.380 --> 00:36:57.040 align:middle line:84% In terms of uploading and adding visuals, 00:36:57.040 --> 00:37:00.490 align:middle line:84% if I'm going to upload or share a video, 00:37:00.490 --> 00:37:02.500 align:middle line:90% I add it at that point in time. 00:37:02.500 --> 00:37:05.170 align:middle line:84% I do not put the video on my PowerPoint. 00:37:05.170 --> 00:37:07.630 align:middle line:84% I wait until I'm on VoiceThread itself, 00:37:07.630 --> 00:37:10.010 align:middle line:84% because I've had problems with it. 00:37:10.010 --> 00:37:15.730 align:middle line:84% And once I'm on VoiceThread, I add a link to a video. 00:37:15.730 --> 00:37:20.130 align:middle line:84% Kolleen, have you had any issues with that at all? 00:37:20.130 --> 00:37:20.630 align:middle line:90% - Yeah. 00:37:20.630 --> 00:37:24.230 align:middle line:84% I do all the videos on VoiceThread directly as well. 00:37:24.230 --> 00:37:25.280 align:middle line:90% - Right. 00:37:25.280 --> 00:37:28.040 align:middle line:84% So then once I have my VoiceThread up and ready to go, 00:37:28.040 --> 00:37:30.680 align:middle line:90% then I create my comments. 00:37:30.680 --> 00:37:34.190 align:middle line:84% And again, I do an audio and video comment. 00:37:34.190 --> 00:37:36.260 align:middle line:90% I will close caption. 00:37:36.260 --> 00:37:40.640 align:middle line:84% I'm starting to now just close caption automatically. 00:37:40.640 --> 00:37:44.700 align:middle line:84% If I need to make a text comment because I'm 00:37:44.700 --> 00:37:46.920 align:middle line:84% using the VoiceThread that particular day, 00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:49.860 align:middle line:84% then I make sure that I do that for any students that I have. 00:37:49.860 --> 00:37:54.540 align:middle line:84% But I do want to share this about accessibility. 00:37:54.540 --> 00:37:57.120 align:middle line:84% You are going into a remote setting. 00:37:57.120 --> 00:37:59.850 align:middle line:84% You are not necessarily online teachers. 00:37:59.850 --> 00:38:03.240 align:middle line:84% And so you already know who your students are, if you are not 00:38:03.240 --> 00:38:05.230 align:middle line:90% doing a nine-week class. 00:38:05.230 --> 00:38:07.860 align:middle line:84% So for example, I have a student who is deaf. 00:38:07.860 --> 00:38:09.960 align:middle line:84% And so I know that I have to make sure 00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:12.450 align:middle line:90% that I have the text available. 00:38:12.450 --> 00:38:15.420 align:middle line:84% In fact, what I'm going to be doing in that particular class, 00:38:15.420 --> 00:38:16.950 align:middle line:84% is I'm going to be asking students 00:38:16.950 --> 00:38:20.130 align:middle line:84% to make text comments just for that particular class. 00:38:20.130 --> 00:38:23.610 align:middle line:84% Because I already know that there is an issue with it. 00:38:23.610 --> 00:38:26.010 align:middle line:84% But with my other classes, that is not 00:38:26.010 --> 00:38:27.560 align:middle line:90% an accessibility problem. 00:38:27.560 --> 00:38:32.700 align:middle line:84% So that is something to consider here. 00:38:32.700 --> 00:38:34.640 align:middle line:90% And then it is-- 00:38:34.640 --> 00:38:36.930 align:middle line:84% and then I open it up to students. 00:38:36.930 --> 00:38:37.960 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:38:37.960 --> 00:38:38.460 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:38:38.460 --> 00:38:43.070 align:middle line:84% So Kolleen mentioned this, and I've mentioned this, too. 00:38:43.070 --> 00:38:45.110 align:middle line:84% The great thing about VoiceThread 00:38:45.110 --> 00:38:50.330 align:middle line:84% is that you can focus on content or metacognition or affective 00:38:50.330 --> 00:38:52.490 align:middle line:90% domain issues. 00:38:52.490 --> 00:38:57.290 align:middle line:84% You can use a VoiceThread to introduce new content. 00:38:57.290 --> 00:38:59.600 align:middle line:84% You can use it in the middle and have them practice. 00:38:59.600 --> 00:39:04.140 align:middle line:84% And I would say that Colleen did both with her example. 00:39:04.140 --> 00:39:07.010 align:middle line:84% The VoiceThread that I shared about the short story 00:39:07.010 --> 00:39:10.670 align:middle line:84% genre, that was meant to be something that they looked at 00:39:10.670 --> 00:39:14.810 align:middle line:84% after we had looked at the short stories, and [INAUDIBLE] they 00:39:14.810 --> 00:39:17.000 align:middle line:90% already had a mini lecture. 00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:18.470 align:middle line:84% You could also have it be something 00:39:18.470 --> 00:39:20.390 align:middle line:90% that you do at the end. 00:39:20.390 --> 00:39:24.320 align:middle line:84% And one thing that I've done, which I actually really like 00:39:24.320 --> 00:39:29.570 align:middle line:84% doing, is that I've had students individually create slides 00:39:29.570 --> 00:39:32.720 align:middle line:90% and a slideshow on Google. 00:39:32.720 --> 00:39:38.000 align:middle line:84% And then I download the slideshow to PowerPoint. 00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:40.730 align:middle line:90% I upload it back to VoiceThread. 00:39:40.730 --> 00:39:43.190 align:middle line:84% And then I have the content creators, 00:39:43.190 --> 00:39:46.880 align:middle line:84% which are the students, comment on their own slides. 00:39:46.880 --> 00:39:50.590 align:middle line:84% And that's something you can do as a project, 00:39:50.590 --> 00:39:51.960 align:middle line:90% if you would like. 00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:55.360 align:middle line:84% And then I ask students to go in and comment on two or three 00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:56.360 align:middle line:90% of the different slides. 00:39:56.360 --> 00:39:58.200 align:middle line:84% And then that way, students can actually 00:39:58.200 --> 00:40:02.490 align:middle line:90% be content creators as well. 00:40:02.490 --> 00:40:06.290 align:middle line:84% And then if you were thinking about using VoiceThread 00:40:06.290 --> 00:40:07.520 align:middle line:90% after the fact-- 00:40:07.520 --> 00:40:10.160 align:middle line:84% and I use VoiceThread in my face-to-face classes 00:40:10.160 --> 00:40:12.890 align:middle line:90% and my online classes-- 00:40:12.890 --> 00:40:15.250 align:middle line:84% thinking about how many VoiceThread assignments 00:40:15.250 --> 00:40:18.140 align:middle line:84% you would like your students to participate in. 00:40:18.140 --> 00:40:20.960 align:middle line:84% If you're using this for remote, you 00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.450 align:middle line:84% may decide that this is what you do for lectures. 00:40:23.450 --> 00:40:25.760 align:middle line:84% And this is actually my favorite way 00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:29.300 align:middle line:84% to use VoiceThread is as a lecture. 00:40:29.300 --> 00:40:32.290 align:middle line:84% I like it even better than creating an Adobe Spark 00:40:32.290 --> 00:40:34.050 align:middle line:90% video, which I will do. 00:40:34.050 --> 00:40:38.000 align:middle line:84% And the reason why I like it is that students can stop it. 00:40:38.000 --> 00:40:40.910 align:middle line:84% They can listen to it again, just a particular slide. 00:40:40.910 --> 00:40:41.930 align:middle line:90% They can move forward. 00:40:41.930 --> 00:40:43.220 align:middle line:90% They can move backwards. 00:40:43.220 --> 00:40:46.700 align:middle line:84% And so it is actually very student-friendly. 00:40:46.700 --> 00:40:50.130 align:middle line:84% Kolleen, would you like to add something to that? 00:40:50.130 --> 00:40:50.670 align:middle line:90% - Sure. 00:40:50.670 --> 00:40:51.170 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:40:51.170 --> 00:40:55.700 align:middle line:84% I would just say since students do need to create an account, 00:40:55.700 --> 00:40:57.410 align:middle line:84% and it's free and it's quick, but there 00:40:57.410 --> 00:41:01.640 align:middle line:84% is that step of creating an account or downloading the app, 00:41:01.640 --> 00:41:04.910 align:middle line:84% so I would try to at least use it a couple of times 00:41:04.910 --> 00:41:05.810 align:middle line:90% in the semester. 00:41:05.810 --> 00:41:07.940 align:middle line:84% Because it's a little bit annoying 00:41:07.940 --> 00:41:10.280 align:middle line:84% to ask students to go through those steps 00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:14.540 align:middle line:84% of downloading something, and just use it once. 00:41:14.540 --> 00:41:18.290 align:middle line:84% And I think with this shift of transitioning online, 00:41:18.290 --> 00:41:20.720 align:middle line:84% it's good for them to have some consistency. 00:41:20.720 --> 00:41:24.020 align:middle line:84% So if they know that every Wednesday they 00:41:24.020 --> 00:41:27.860 align:middle line:84% do their VoiceThread, then that adds some stability, 00:41:27.860 --> 00:41:29.480 align:middle line:90% some sense of routine. 00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:31.010 align:middle line:90% They get more familiar with it. 00:41:31.010 --> 00:41:33.715 align:middle line:90% So I have it every other week. 00:41:33.715 --> 00:41:35.840 align:middle line:84% I'm using one every other week, because that's when 00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:38.210 align:middle line:90% I start kind of a new unit. 00:41:38.210 --> 00:41:40.520 align:middle line:84% So they know that that's what to expect 00:41:40.520 --> 00:41:44.390 align:middle line:84% when we approach a new unit, is we do our VoiceThread. 00:41:44.390 --> 00:41:44.910 align:middle line:90% - Right. 00:41:44.910 --> 00:41:45.410 align:middle line:90% Right. 00:41:45.410 --> 00:41:46.160 align:middle line:90% And so, yeah. 00:41:46.160 --> 00:41:49.280 align:middle line:84% So if you're going to use it for a particular something-- 00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:53.600 align:middle line:84% I love it-- like I used it for MLA. 00:41:53.600 --> 00:41:56.390 align:middle line:84% And every time that students are getting 00:41:56.390 --> 00:42:00.500 align:middle line:84% ready to write that paper, I will send it in an announcement 00:42:00.500 --> 00:42:04.040 align:middle line:84% to remind them, hey, please double-check and make sure 00:42:04.040 --> 00:42:06.170 align:middle line:84% that you know these particular guidelines 00:42:06.170 --> 00:42:10.460 align:middle line:84% for the heading for in-text citations and the bibliography. 00:42:10.460 --> 00:42:14.690 align:middle line:84% So I will remind them several different times as well. 00:42:14.690 --> 00:42:17.500 align:middle line:90% 00:42:17.500 --> 00:42:19.340 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:42:19.340 --> 00:42:21.890 align:middle line:84% So I wanted to include this as well. 00:42:21.890 --> 00:42:23.720 align:middle line:90% This is Michelle Pacansky-Brock. 00:42:23.720 --> 00:42:27.650 align:middle line:84% In fact, she's the one who introduced me to VoiceThread 00:42:27.650 --> 00:42:29.390 align:middle line:90% seven or eight years ago. 00:42:29.390 --> 00:42:31.700 align:middle line:84% And I think that you can even look her 00:42:31.700 --> 00:42:33.920 align:middle line:90% up and look at more videos. 00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:36.950 align:middle line:84% She teaches photography and also pedagogy 00:42:36.950 --> 00:42:39.650 align:middle line:90% to instructors, online pedagogy. 00:42:39.650 --> 00:42:44.030 align:middle line:84% But I 100%-- if you go onto VoiceThread, 00:42:44.030 --> 00:42:48.210 align:middle line:84% you can find VoiceThread for your content area. 00:42:48.210 --> 00:42:49.970 align:middle line:84% This is not just for the Humanities. 00:42:49.970 --> 00:42:51.820 align:middle line:90% This is definitely for math. 00:42:51.820 --> 00:42:53.690 align:middle line:84% And there's one thing I did not show you 00:42:53.690 --> 00:42:56.270 align:middle line:84% that I wanted to show you, and that 00:42:56.270 --> 00:43:00.710 align:middle line:90% is the capability of doodle. 00:43:00.710 --> 00:43:04.280 align:middle line:84% Because you can actually comment on a slide, 00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:09.830 align:middle line:84% and doodle on the slide, and ask students to mark up a text, 00:43:09.830 --> 00:43:11.540 align:middle line:84% which could be something wonderful 00:43:11.540 --> 00:43:13.290 align:middle line:90% for any particular class. 00:43:13.290 --> 00:43:15.510 align:middle line:90% So I want to show you that. 00:43:15.510 --> 00:43:18.910 align:middle line:90% And I'm going to go back to-- 00:43:18.910 --> 00:43:27.192 align:middle line:84% I'm going to try to go back to this slide here. 00:43:27.192 --> 00:43:31.912 align:middle line:90% 00:43:31.912 --> 00:43:33.860 align:middle line:90% Opening that VoiceThread again. 00:43:33.860 --> 00:43:39.430 align:middle line:90% 00:43:39.430 --> 00:43:41.430 align:middle line:84% And after this, I'm going to be ask-- 00:43:41.430 --> 00:43:42.910 align:middle line:84% I'm going to just stay, actually, 00:43:42.910 --> 00:43:45.580 align:middle line:84% on the VoiceThread itself, so that you have 00:43:45.580 --> 00:43:46.880 align:middle line:90% this in front of your face. 00:43:46.880 --> 00:43:49.030 align:middle line:84% And if you have any questions, I'd 00:43:49.030 --> 00:43:52.610 align:middle line:84% like to open it up at that point as well. 00:43:52.610 --> 00:43:55.370 align:middle line:84% So I'm going to make a comment here. 00:43:55.370 --> 00:44:00.740 align:middle line:84% And I'm hoping I can do a video comment since we're on Zoom-- 00:44:00.740 --> 00:44:02.100 align:middle line:90% or an audio comment. 00:44:02.100 --> 00:44:05.530 align:middle line:90% 00:44:05.530 --> 00:44:07.880 align:middle line:84% So it gives you a little warning here. 00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:08.380 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:44:08.380 --> 00:44:12.550 align:middle line:84% So if you look down here, there are little colored pencils, 00:44:12.550 --> 00:44:15.740 align:middle line:84% and you can choose any color that you want. 00:44:15.740 --> 00:44:20.110 align:middle line:84% And you can ask students to point to things. 00:44:20.110 --> 00:44:22.970 align:middle line:84% You can ask them to mark something up. 00:44:22.970 --> 00:44:26.560 align:middle line:84% You can ask them to do anything that a little pencil would 00:44:26.560 --> 00:44:27.970 align:middle line:90% do here. 00:44:27.970 --> 00:44:33.560 align:middle line:84% And what's great about this is that you can do that, 00:44:33.560 --> 00:44:34.820 align:middle line:90% and it ends up-- 00:44:34.820 --> 00:44:36.170 align:middle line:90% it's uploading. 00:44:36.170 --> 00:44:38.120 align:middle line:84% This is another-- gives you a little warning. 00:44:38.120 --> 00:44:40.850 align:middle line:90% You can save it or redo it. 00:44:40.850 --> 00:44:44.390 align:middle line:84% What's great about that is that you are then 00:44:44.390 --> 00:44:49.970 align:middle line:84% able to ask students to doodle on your slide here. 00:44:49.970 --> 00:44:52.470 align:middle line:90% And it erases by itself. 00:44:52.470 --> 00:44:56.408 align:middle line:84% So it's not like they make a permanent mark. 00:44:56.408 --> 00:44:57.950 align:middle line:84% And I've actually done that when I've 00:44:57.950 --> 00:44:59.420 align:middle line:90% asked students to annotate. 00:44:59.420 --> 00:45:04.460 align:middle line:84% I've asked them to find things and underline and practice 00:45:04.460 --> 00:45:05.810 align:middle line:90% making comments. 00:45:05.810 --> 00:45:09.410 align:middle line:84% So I wanted to show you that particular aspect. 00:45:09.410 --> 00:45:13.710 align:middle line:84% I also here-- want to show you here, we have the three lines. 00:45:13.710 --> 00:45:15.620 align:middle line:90% There's the VoiceThread details. 00:45:15.620 --> 00:45:19.730 align:middle line:84% You can share it, edit, make a copy. 00:45:19.730 --> 00:45:23.630 align:middle line:84% We have embed, export, and then my comments are in English. 00:45:23.630 --> 00:45:25.200 align:middle line:90% So on this show you again-- 00:45:25.200 --> 00:45:26.390 align:middle line:90% there we go. 00:45:26.390 --> 00:45:28.140 align:middle line:84% - Gives you a little warning here. 00:45:28.140 --> 00:45:30.280 align:middle line:90% - CC. 00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:32.650 align:middle line:90% There it is. 00:45:32.650 --> 00:45:33.940 align:middle line:90% We can choose English. 00:45:33.940 --> 00:45:36.100 align:middle line:90% We can choose Order. 00:45:36.100 --> 00:45:39.940 align:middle line:84% And then it will be done in about four days. 00:45:39.940 --> 00:45:41.410 align:middle line:90% And it will come to you. 00:45:41.410 --> 00:45:42.010 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:45:42.010 --> 00:45:43.275 align:middle line:90% So I just wanted to show that. 00:45:43.275 --> 00:45:44.650 align:middle line:84% And I want to just say thank you. 00:45:44.650 --> 00:45:48.000 align:middle line:84% I've never had an issue with the PowerPoint here, 00:45:48.000 --> 00:45:50.750 align:middle line:84% or Google slides going backwards and forwards. 00:45:50.750 --> 00:45:52.790 align:middle line:90% So I apologize for that. 00:45:52.790 --> 00:45:53.290 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:45:53.290 --> 00:45:55.090 align:middle line:90% So now I'd like to open it up. 00:45:55.090 --> 00:45:57.050 align:middle line:90% We have about 15 minutes. 00:45:57.050 --> 00:45:58.498 align:middle line:84% Kolleen, would you like to start? 00:45:58.498 --> 00:46:00.040 align:middle line:84% Is there anything that you would like 00:46:00.040 --> 00:46:03.430 align:middle line:84% to add before people start talking about this 00:46:03.430 --> 00:46:05.330 align:middle line:90% or asking questions? 00:46:05.330 --> 00:46:05.890 align:middle line:90% - No. 00:46:05.890 --> 00:46:09.160 align:middle line:84% I think the only thing that we're 00:46:09.160 --> 00:46:10.690 align:middle line:84% wondering about in the Chat, we're 00:46:10.690 --> 00:46:15.640 align:middle line:84% wondering about that free usage that you mentioned, 00:46:15.640 --> 00:46:18.100 align:middle line:84% because I wasn't able to find how 00:46:18.100 --> 00:46:19.820 align:middle line:90% to get that free subscription. 00:46:19.820 --> 00:46:20.830 align:middle line:90% Do you-- 00:46:20.830 --> 00:46:26.470 align:middle line:84% - I believe I included an email or an inquiry on the page 00:46:26.470 --> 00:46:27.340 align:middle line:90% itself. 00:46:27.340 --> 00:46:28.270 align:middle line:90% - OK 00:46:28.270 --> 00:46:29.590 align:middle line:90% - Yeah. 00:46:29.590 --> 00:46:31.390 align:middle line:90% So it should be there. 00:46:31.390 --> 00:46:32.890 align:middle line:90% Yes. 00:46:32.890 --> 00:46:35.830 align:middle line:84% - And then, Veronica, you can use a PDF. 00:46:35.830 --> 00:46:36.940 align:middle line:90% You can upload anything. 00:46:36.940 --> 00:46:39.160 align:middle line:84% It doesn't have to be a PowerPoint slide. 00:46:39.160 --> 00:46:40.240 align:middle line:90% It can be a PDF. 00:46:40.240 --> 00:46:42.820 align:middle line:84% If it can be a-- yeah, any image. 00:46:42.820 --> 00:46:43.320 align:middle line:90% - Yeah. 00:46:43.320 --> 00:46:44.190 align:middle line:90% I believe so. 00:46:44.190 --> 00:46:45.240 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:46:45.240 --> 00:46:47.080 align:middle line:90% It's anything on your computer. 00:46:47.080 --> 00:46:50.680 align:middle line:84% The one thing though I will tell you that is a little bit wonky, 00:46:50.680 --> 00:46:55.000 align:middle line:84% is that you need to make sure that your PowerPoints are not 00:46:55.000 --> 00:46:56.280 align:middle line:90% too-- 00:46:56.280 --> 00:46:58.450 align:middle line:84% like, the visuals are not too big, 00:46:58.450 --> 00:47:02.530 align:middle line:84% or the text is not so big that it covers your entire screen. 00:47:02.530 --> 00:47:04.360 align:middle line:84% Because if you put it on VoiceThread, 00:47:04.360 --> 00:47:07.150 align:middle line:84% sometimes it kind of changes the size. 00:47:07.150 --> 00:47:08.590 align:middle line:90% And I've had issues with that. 00:47:08.590 --> 00:47:11.080 align:middle line:84% So that's another reason why you want 00:47:11.080 --> 00:47:14.170 align:middle line:84% to make comments on your slides before you give them 00:47:14.170 --> 00:47:14.745 align:middle line:90% to students. 00:47:14.745 --> 00:47:16.120 align:middle line:84% I've seen-- I'm like, oh my gosh. 00:47:16.120 --> 00:47:18.920 align:middle line:84% This does not look like how I created it. 00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:21.130 align:middle line:84% And so I've gone back and I've fixed the slide, 00:47:21.130 --> 00:47:22.690 align:middle line:90% and then I uploaded a new one. 00:47:22.690 --> 00:47:25.220 align:middle line:90% 00:47:25.220 --> 00:47:25.940 align:middle line:90% Anybody else? 00:47:25.940 --> 00:47:29.410 align:middle line:90% 00:47:29.410 --> 00:47:35.300 align:middle line:84% And please feel free to unmute yourselves, and you can chat. 00:47:35.300 --> 00:47:37.140 align:middle line:84% You don't have to physically use the Chat. 00:47:37.140 --> 00:47:39.208 align:middle line:84% It's not necessary unless you want to. 00:47:39.208 --> 00:47:49.980 align:middle line:90% 00:47:49.980 --> 00:47:51.660 align:middle line:90% Let me see. 00:47:51.660 --> 00:47:56.370 align:middle line:84% Since there is nobody talking, I want to take a look 00:47:56.370 --> 00:47:59.830 align:middle line:90% and show you something here. 00:47:59.830 --> 00:48:01.240 align:middle line:90% So I'm going to close out. 00:48:01.240 --> 00:48:05.820 align:middle line:84% You press the X to close out the specific VoiceThread. 00:48:05.820 --> 00:48:12.941 align:middle line:84% And I'm going to go to Browse if I can. 00:48:12.941 --> 00:48:19.155 align:middle line:90% 00:48:19.155 --> 00:48:20.530 align:middle line:84% And I wanted to show you, there's 00:48:20.530 --> 00:48:25.240 align:middle line:84% higher education, business, art, travel, photography. 00:48:25.240 --> 00:48:26.260 align:middle line:90% There's tutorials. 00:48:26.260 --> 00:48:28.870 align:middle line:90% There's tutorials in Spanish. 00:48:28.870 --> 00:48:33.730 align:middle line:84% And like I said, I've had students who use this. 00:48:33.730 --> 00:48:35.710 align:middle line:84% I've been in classes with colleagues 00:48:35.710 --> 00:48:39.940 align:middle line:84% who use this in math and language and Spanish. 00:48:39.940 --> 00:48:41.680 align:middle line:90% This is, you know, languages. 00:48:41.680 --> 00:48:44.770 align:middle line:84% I've had Spanish teachers use it. 00:48:44.770 --> 00:48:47.140 align:middle line:90% I've had math teachers use it. 00:48:47.140 --> 00:48:48.280 align:middle line:90% Everybody can use it. 00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:50.350 align:middle line:84% Because you can put anything on your slide. 00:48:50.350 --> 00:48:55.060 align:middle line:84% And what I like is, again, is that it allows for students, 00:48:55.060 --> 00:48:59.470 align:middle line:84% if they hear me lecture about a particular idea, 00:48:59.470 --> 00:49:03.340 align:middle line:84% they can go back and listen or read again as many times 00:49:03.340 --> 00:49:04.180 align:middle line:90% as they need to. 00:49:04.180 --> 00:49:07.750 align:middle line:84% So it's very accessible for students in that way. 00:49:07.750 --> 00:49:09.910 align:middle line:84% - Janet, while you're on that page, 00:49:09.910 --> 00:49:13.300 align:middle line:84% would you go to the Create and just show 00:49:13.300 --> 00:49:15.250 align:middle line:84% what it looks like just from scratch? 00:49:15.250 --> 00:49:16.610 align:middle line:90% - Yes. 00:49:16.610 --> 00:49:17.110 align:middle line:90% Yes. 00:49:17.110 --> 00:49:17.610 align:middle line:90% Thank you. 00:49:17.610 --> 00:49:20.260 align:middle line:90% 00:49:20.260 --> 00:49:20.780 align:middle line:90% OK. 00:49:20.780 --> 00:49:22.460 align:middle line:90% So here we are. 00:49:22.460 --> 00:49:25.850 align:middle line:90% We have Add Media or Drop Files. 00:49:25.850 --> 00:49:31.890 align:middle line:84% So we can go to My Computer, Media Sources, et cetera. 00:49:31.890 --> 00:49:36.690 align:middle line:84% - So that's where you would sync in your PowerPoint or your PDF 00:49:36.690 --> 00:49:40.710 align:middle line:84% or whatever it is that you want to comment on and have 00:49:40.710 --> 00:49:42.240 align:middle line:90% your students respond to. 00:49:42.240 --> 00:49:46.020 align:middle line:84% So lots of options of file types that you can put there. 00:49:46.020 --> 00:49:48.460 align:middle line:84% Janet and I just happen to use PowerPoint a lot, 00:49:48.460 --> 00:49:52.073 align:middle line:84% but it could be many different file types. 00:49:52.073 --> 00:49:53.020 align:middle line:90% - Right. 00:49:53.020 --> 00:49:55.150 align:middle line:90% Thank you. 00:49:55.150 --> 00:49:57.870 align:middle line:90% Anybody else? 00:49:57.870 --> 00:50:03.720 align:middle line:84% - Linda, you're asking about the students doing their responses. 00:50:03.720 --> 00:50:06.870 align:middle line:84% They respond directly on VoiceThread. 00:50:06.870 --> 00:50:08.660 align:middle line:90% - Yes. 00:50:08.660 --> 00:50:09.210 align:middle line:90% - Yeah. 00:50:09.210 --> 00:50:09.710 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:50:09.710 --> 00:50:11.100 align:middle line:90% It's not on-- 00:50:11.100 --> 00:50:14.240 align:middle line:84% I mean, it's on Canvas in that I have my VoiceThread embedded 00:50:14.240 --> 00:50:14.990 align:middle line:90% in Canvas. 00:50:14.990 --> 00:50:17.030 align:middle line:84% But the response goes through VoiceThread. 00:50:17.030 --> 00:50:18.530 align:middle line:84% So it's kind of annoying, because it 00:50:18.530 --> 00:50:21.342 align:middle line:84% doesn't link to your grade book automatically. 00:50:21.342 --> 00:50:23.300 align:middle line:84% That's what I said, I have to do the extra step 00:50:23.300 --> 00:50:24.950 align:middle line:90% of the manual grade. 00:50:24.950 --> 00:50:26.660 align:middle line:84% If, as you guys are talking about, 00:50:26.660 --> 00:50:29.380 align:middle line:84% if we get Cerritos to purchase a subscription 00:50:29.380 --> 00:50:32.180 align:middle line:84% and it becomes an integration through Canvas, 00:50:32.180 --> 00:50:33.770 align:middle line:84% then it would sync up with our grade 00:50:33.770 --> 00:50:36.140 align:middle line:90% book, which would be sweet. 00:50:36.140 --> 00:50:36.690 align:middle line:90% - Yes. 00:50:36.690 --> 00:50:37.190 align:middle line:90% Yeah. 00:50:37.190 --> 00:50:38.690 align:middle line:90% And that's why I-- 00:50:38.690 --> 00:50:42.440 align:middle line:84% with any of these outside, like I use VoiceThread, 00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:44.755 align:middle line:84% and I use [INAUDIBLE] quite a lot. 00:50:44.755 --> 00:50:46.880 align:middle line:84% And if any of you want to know what [INAUDIBLE] is, 00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:48.160 align:middle line:90% you can send me an email. 00:50:48.160 --> 00:50:49.250 align:middle line:90% I'll respond to that. 00:50:49.250 --> 00:50:52.040 align:middle line:84% But whenever I have them use anything that's 00:50:52.040 --> 00:50:54.700 align:middle line:84% outside of Canvas, even a Google doc, 00:50:54.700 --> 00:50:59.330 align:middle line:84% and I have them create a response, 00:50:59.330 --> 00:51:01.340 align:middle line:90% I have them go back to Canvas. 00:51:01.340 --> 00:51:05.190 align:middle line:84% I have a very short little assignment link there. 00:51:05.190 --> 00:51:06.410 align:middle line:90% And I remind them, please-- 00:51:06.410 --> 00:51:08.360 align:middle line:90% I say, go here first. 00:51:08.360 --> 00:51:11.360 align:middle line:84% That's what I title my VoiceThread, go here first-- 00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:14.350 align:middle line:90% VoiceThread. 00:51:14.350 --> 00:51:18.070 align:middle line:84% Share that you responded on this VoiceThread here. 00:51:18.070 --> 00:51:21.160 align:middle line:84% Other wording, but very similar, so students know what to do. 00:51:21.160 --> 00:51:22.630 align:middle line:90% They go on to the text box. 00:51:22.630 --> 00:51:24.920 align:middle line:84% They say the date they responded, 00:51:24.920 --> 00:51:26.590 align:middle line:84% who they responded to, and a couple 00:51:26.590 --> 00:51:29.260 align:middle line:90% of things that they learned. 00:51:29.260 --> 00:51:32.230 align:middle line:84% So that way it makes it a little bit easier for me. 00:51:32.230 --> 00:51:36.430 align:middle line:90% 00:51:36.430 --> 00:51:37.800 align:middle line:90% Anybody else? 00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:40.857 align:middle line:90% And any ideas or suggestions-- 00:51:40.857 --> 00:51:42.690 align:middle line:84% if you were listening to this, and you went, 00:51:42.690 --> 00:51:46.370 align:middle line:84% oh, I'd really like to do this versus that. 00:51:46.370 --> 00:51:53.720 align:middle line:90% 00:51:53.720 --> 00:51:54.220 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:51:54.220 --> 00:51:55.060 align:middle line:90% Well, OK. 00:51:55.060 --> 00:51:58.870 align:middle line:90% So I will say one other thing. 00:51:58.870 --> 00:52:03.010 align:middle line:84% Again, you can have slides, but you can also 00:52:03.010 --> 00:52:10.420 align:middle line:84% have videos put within your actual VoiceThreads. 00:52:10.420 --> 00:52:11.560 align:middle line:90% And I like that as well. 00:52:11.560 --> 00:52:13.990 align:middle line:84% So I might have a short two to three-minute video 00:52:13.990 --> 00:52:16.300 align:middle line:84% that I would like them to respond to. 00:52:16.300 --> 00:52:18.310 align:middle line:84% It's helpful if those videos have already 00:52:18.310 --> 00:52:21.100 align:middle line:90% been closed captioned though. 00:52:21.100 --> 00:52:22.240 align:middle line:90% All right. 00:52:22.240 --> 00:52:26.460 align:middle line:84% If no one else has any other questions, 00:52:26.460 --> 00:52:28.510 align:middle line:90% we'll end the meeting. 00:52:28.510 --> 00:52:30.070 align:middle line:90% And thank you again. 00:52:30.070 --> 00:52:31.135 align:middle line:90% I'm sorry for the issues. 00:52:31.135 --> 00:52:35.100 align:middle line:84% I've never quite had issues like that, but--
