Accessing your VoiceThread Group
Once your instructor has added you to a VoiceThread group, click on the VoiceThread Home page link in your HuskyCT course.
This will log you in and bring you to your VoiceThread home page.
From the left-side panel, courses tab, locate the name of your course. If your instructor has assigned you to a group, it will appear under the course name. Click on it to view the group space.
If a group VoiceThread has been created and shared with the group, it will appear here. If not, proceed to the next section.
Creating a Shared Group VoiceThread
From the Group space, one group member will need to create the initial VoiceThread and then share it with the group.
To create a new VoiceThread, click the + Add a VoiceThread button.
Then click + Create a new VoiceThread.
Now you can select Media that will become the slides that will be commented on. **At least one slide needs to be added to be able to share the VoiceThread with the other group members.
After adding an initial slide, click the Share with group button.
Enter a title if necessary, then click Save.
Finally, grant the “Edit” access level and click Save.
Once shared, the VoiceThread will appear when group members access the group via the VT Home page.
Any group member can now freely add media and comments to the VoiceThread by clicking the edit icon.
Submitting the Group VoiceThread
For group VoiceThread projects, only one member of the group will need to submit.
Once your group has finalized the VoiceThread project, select a group member to submit.
Before submitting the group VoiceThread to the VoiceThread Assignment link in HuskyCT, make a copy of the group VoiceThread by hovering the cursor over your group project and clicking the copy icon.
Note: This is a critical step as submitting a VoiceThread assignment will remove the group VoiceThread from your account.When you copy a VoiceThread, you can edit the name of the copy, and specify which comments the copy should keep. For your group project, choose Include all Comments.
Navigate to the VoiceThread Assignment link in your HuskyCT course.
From the Assignment page, click Start Assignment.
From the "Let's get started!" page, select Use an existing VoiceThread instead of creating a new one.
Select the Submission copy your group's VoiceThread and click Submit.
