Overview
VoiceThread is a communications platform that transforms learning experiences by enabling students to connect with teachers and peers authentically, but without the anxiety-inducing experience of live online interaction found in zoom classes. In a VoiceThread discussion, the interpersonal interactions are just as warm as live sessions but are instead self-paced - giving students and teachers time for thoughtful reflection and practice.
VoiceThread has been awarded ESSA Level IV and Level III certification for its alignment with standards outlined by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and has a proven record of efficacy across a broad range of uses. There is likely no other EdTech tool with as broad a set of applications, nor as much third-party research conducted into efficacy.
The Active User License is an enterprise wide license that provides an unlimited number of user accounts for an entire school district but bases your first-year cost on how many VoiceThread users you expect to use. You'll work with an account manager to find the correct first year entry level usage band and then at your renewal, we will use your first-year actual usage data (active users) to adjust your cost upwards or downwards for the following year. An active user is someone who comments, watches, or creates a VoiceThread.
Using this model means that you DO NOT have a cap on accounts within your license period. You can grow your VoiceThread use organically over time without worrying about incurring unbudgeted costs.
The license includes:
Automatic account creation Single Sign-on / GAFE integration Automatic group creation and roster add/drop changes Assignment builder Grading interface Customized training sessions Expedited support Management portal and Analytics
Highlights
- Humanize learning interactions, assessments, dicussions, lecturing, meetings, and presentations
- Rich interpersonal interaction and collaboration, without the stress and inefficiency of live meetings
- Highly accessible and interoperable with Learning Management Systems / GAFE
