21st Century Classrooms


                              I have created a voki classroom character. 

Voki allows teachers and students to create speaking avatars in engaging, stimulating, and meaningful ways. Voki motivates students to participate in classroom discusions and activities, and improves message comprehension. Voki is a student friendly way to introduce technology and an effective language and instructional tool. Now that I have learned how to use Voki, I will be sure to use it in my lesson plans. I could use Voki to act out a speech of a historical character, assign homework, or give a presentation. Students can use Voki to present their findings after research, create a historical figure they have been studying about, or create different Voki characters from various cultural backgrounds to apply what they have learned from cultural studies.
