Educause has done it again with another in their great "7 Things" pdf monograms this time turning their attention to VoiceThread. As usual they illustrate the application via a scenario before concisely looking at the upsides and drawbacks of the application as well as implications for teaching and learning. A really good read.

Stupeflix is another one of those online apps/spaces that enable you to create slideshows using images from online or your camera to which you can add a soundtrack. The big difference with this one is that you can actually download the “movie” to your own computer either as an mp4 or flash file. You can also select to group images so that they have the same transition. This also enables you to add soundtracks specific to each group. The only downside is that there is no direct embed code, instead you have to upload the movie to a thrid party site such as TeacherTube and then use this code to embed it as below.
