Voki


Get a Voki now!


I have just created a Voki Avatar which I think would be an engaging tool for use in the classroom. I liked the different selections available and how I was able to type in the text that I wanted the Avatar to say. This could have many opportunities in the classroom such as:

  • a great way to set a scene (As my avatar does)
  • could introduce the lesson
  • easy for students to create
  • useful for students who have learning difficulties or are hesitant to speak in class
  • can be embedded into tools such as Blogs and Wikis

The one that I have created could be used as part of a SOSE webquest where students investigate landfill and the impact of this on the environment.
