Our vendor partners at Voice Thread have been busy enhancing the assignment experience in their multimedia discussion tool. You can turn on the new assignment workflow now on a course by course basis or wait until the summer when we will turn it on as the default for all courses.
So what is new about the VoiceThread assignment workflow? According to VoiceThread’s advance communications the new workflow includes:
- Interface enhancements to streamline the assignment creation process
- Instructors can control more options in assignments
- Ability to edit assignments
- Better feedback for students
- A student gallery so students can easily see classmates VoiceThreads
To turn on the new assignment workflow, follow the instructions for Instructors in the VoiceThread New Assignment Transition plan.
More information on using the new assignment workflow is available in the instructor guide.
VoiceThread will be hosting regular webinars on the new assignment workflow. Check the calendar on the Online Hub to see when the next one is being held.
