Voki

Wow, I had some fun doing this one...
I added the code the website gave me but was unable to load my post. Unsure on the code now and how others can view it.
My voki was a gingerbread man teaching children the colours (sing a rainbow).
Voki's are a wonderful tool that can be used for many different things. We have all seen through managing e learning how voki's can be used as Scott has placed one on every page so far with a brief explanation on what the readings are about.
A voki could be used in my classroom to help children stay engaged in their learning, allowing teachers to set up a voki and allow the children time to go through and explore each one and what it has to say/teach. Now with my voki I created I aimed it at the younger children (as I am doing Early Childhood) so my voki is there to teach them how to sing "Sing a Rainbow" or learn the colours in a fun way. Most would sit at the front of the class on a chair and sing this song to the children, however some children tend to switch off and become uninterested in what the teacher is saying, using a voki to teach them different songs or themes would increase their interest within the curriculum.
With more exploration of what voki's are able to do I am sure that you would be able to incorporate different ideas into the backgrouds of the voki's, for example if children are having difficulties counting to 10 then incorporating numbers in the background would also give them a visual aide to look at when listening to the voki.

All up voki's would be such a good thing to have in the classrooms, as teachers would be able to set up computer stations where children can go to learn without others distractions.
