I am planning to use Voicethread for student book talks or book shares in 7th & 8th grade English. My purpose is to encourage independent reading and get students talking about the books they read more. I hope that they will be motivated to add comments about books they have already read to enrich their classmates' talks. I will also explore developing a rubric with the students for what these book talks need to include, and I see some sites to explore in 21 Ways to Engage 21st Century Learners that are all about developing rubrics.

I would love to do Voicethread with the book talks I do in the library. Hopefully I can do this sometime next year. Can't wait to see your project.
