VoiceThread is a tool for creating interactive threaded discussions integrated into Blackboard Learn. It is also a simple option for recorded student presentations. You can think of VoiceThread as a conversation around a slideshow of media files. These media files can be PDFs (you can export your PowerPoint or Keynote presentations to PDFs very simply), images, video files, audio files, and more.  And you can mix the media so your VoiceThread could include, six presentation slides, four images, a video, and two more presentation slides at the end. Once you have your media, you add your own comments in voice (using your computer’s microphone), video (using your computer’s webcam), or text (using the keyboard on your computer). See the VoiceThread handout for more general information. View Getting Around in a VoiceThread for a description of each icon and button as well as keyboard shortcuts for using VoiceThread.
