 * Emerging Trends Instruction [[image:delicious.jpg width="220" height="165"]] **

​ __ Description: __ For this assignment we were asked to research and emerging trend in educational technology and create and instruction application with the application of [|voicethread]. After we choose an emerging trend we were asked to research that trend and get to know it's purpose. In order to complete the assignment you also needed to familiarize yourself with voicethread.

__ Process: __ I chose the emerging trend, [|Delicious]. Delicious is a social bookmarking site. I had the opportunity to use Delicious in the last class and I really enjoyed it. After I chose my topic I did some research and learned how to use voicethread. I then gathered all my information, wrote out my script and began creating.

__ Reflection: __ I have never used voicethread before this assignment. I found it challenging and time consuming at first. I think that had I had more time to put into it, I could have done more with it. Unfortunatley, I do not have hours at one time to spend. The only thing that is starting to bother me about this program is that we spend so little time on learning to use many different sites. I would much rather learn how to use a couple new programs such as Jing or voicethread and have more than one project with that specific program or website. Maybe, I am venting a little and I apologize but that is what reflections are for, right? Overall, i hope I get to use this Voicethread again, I think it's a great way to learn new information!
