I have always been a big fan of Vokis, which are customizable speaking avatars. The voki site has launched a new section, "voki for education." Educators can view and share lesson plans that contain vokis on this site. There is a teacher's corner in which educators share and discuss creative ways that they have incorporated vokis into their classrooms. Voki are a great tool; they can be used for any subject, at any grade level and engage students in a creative way. For example, if you are teaching a lesson on American history, it would be nice to incorporate a president voki. It will grab students' attention and get a few laughs. Last, but certainly not least, they are free! Check out the Voki for Education Page and create your own.
As you can see they are a lot of fun to use ! : )
