I found the Voice thread to be a tool that was easy to work with. I think that students will enjoy making their own narrations and being able to listen to what their classmates have come up with. The Wiki on the other hand is still something I have a lot of trouble with. I find that using a Mac computer is much harder than a traditional PC. The Voice thread will be a tool that I will use with my students no matter what grade level I ended up teaching. Once again it is very easy and fun to work with.
