VOKI

Hello everyone, today ı am going to talk about Voki. This application is funny for students. Users can create characters to resemble living people, animals and cartoons. Record voices via microphone or telephone, or upload them in an audio file. Completed characters can be shared via social media.


 STUDENTS WILL ENJOY FOLLOWİNG TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION ACTIVITIES: 

Vocabulary Rundown

This is a great activity for language arts, English or foreign-language classes. Ask students to design characters. Let them be very creative, as character design isn’t important for this exercise. Have students make a list of some vocabulary words they need to practice that week. Ask them to use one of the three audio input methods to record the five words and their definitions. Then have kids quiz themselves by pausing the animation right before the character states the definition.

Fictional Characters Come to Life

Begin this public speaking exercise by having students design their interpretations of famous characters from literature. Then ask them to use one of the three audio input methods to record their favorite monologue by any one character from a book they’ve read. Give students time to use their animations to help them remember their monologues. Have them present their animations to the class, followed by them reciting their monologues without the help of the animation.

Historical Figures

Want to spice up social studies or history class? Have students create (or select, depending on your account) historical figures to use for brief reports. Have students identify a significant moment from the life of the figure, and then ask them to type up a first-person narrative account for their characters to recite. Next, have them use one of the three audio input methods to record audio for their scripts. Encourage students to present their animated reports to the class.
