Lesson 1 Connect Outside Classroom
Voicethread $79.00/year, create unlimited content, add 50 members to a class group by uploading Excel roster
Best for interactive homework assignment
- Step 1- Create, upload image or video, which can be recorded directly or uploaded
- Step 2- Comment, record audio/text/video doodle, pointing out details in a image while recording
- Step 3-Share, generate a link, check "allow to comment", or email to the group directly. Click "manage comment", so only the commenter and creator can see the thread.
Other benefits: recycle materials created for various purposes, threads can be copied without copying all comments or only with the creator's comment.

Lesson 2 Connect Within One Class -Topic: Travel, Places
Animoto, free, 30 sec. video; $5/month or $30/year, 10 min. videos
Google Site, free
Best for in-class interaction, homework
- Day 1-2, provide contexts (Suggestion of Where to Go/What to Do for Hosting Family and Exchange Students), create framework (guiding questions, create rubrics for giving suggestion), start creating work (1st draft of any sort, verbal, in writing, story board etc.). Google Site can be used in any point to record the progression using commenting, editing google page.
- Day 2-3, improve work, peer editing, finish materials needed for the movie. Use Google Site's commenting and replying (to comment) features.
- Day 3-4, produce movie. Use Animoto, upload image, add text, add background, add music, all provided by the tool. This tool is online and also has an app. Work done on either platform is synced. No need to borrow video cameras, one smart phone can let students finish the whole project.
- Day 4-Day 5, publish work, review others' work, comment. Again, use Google Site. At this point, students are very familiar with the functions and how to interact with each other's work.
