Voice Thread

I have the spiritual insight for the upcoming week so that forced me to learn how to use voice thread a bit better so I could upload my power point presentation and record my comments.

I wanted to write about this technology because of the positive experience I had with it. So often I get so frustrated with technology when it doesn't work or can't figure out how to make it do what I want. It's like I'm speaking English to some program and it only understands German. Anyway, uploading my power point, recording my spiritual insight, and sharing the thread was not like that at all. It was super easy. I didn't know exactly what I was doing so went to the my voice tab and it had a little tutorial. It showed me exactly what to do perfectly. The best part about the tutorial was it was only a minute long. I was able to get the information I needed super quickly. I learned that all I had to do was go to the create tab and upload my power point from my computer. Then all I had to do was record individual comments for each of the slides. I liked how it seperated out the recording to each individual slide; that made it way easier to record. After recording, I pressed the share button and highlighted Dr. West and Danny and then pressed the invite button. As I was leaving the thread a pop up asked me to name, describe, and label my thread. Creating a voice thread was super easier than I was expecting!

So often you only her negative stories about technology. I lost my 20 page research paper on the night before it was due or my computer crashed again or all sorts of other stories. Because there are so many people that do have negative experiences with technology I thought it might be nice to share my positive experience.
