Voki

While checking some of the teacher blogs I saw Technology Tailgators post about Voki. This seems like a great interactive way to get students involved in a whole new way. I like the idea that students that tend to be shy about speaking in front of the class, can now do it with their avatar. I have been noticing that the new common core standards do have a lot of areas where students need to work on their speaking skills. This would be a great introduction to that. I also thought if I had a sub this would be a cool way to give my students a message. Here is Techology Tailgaters site, she is amazing !!
