Voicethread



A list of Art-related Voicethread examples can be found HERE. Below is an example as well.




Mixbook

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains images of an art-portfolio Mixbook. Some pages contain images of nude figure drawings from a university art class. 

I included Mixbook in a previous post, but here is an example of a Mixbook that I created. I ordered a hard copy of this version, and I have to admit...I LOVE IT!!!

This can be a great way for students to showcase their work, and the applications for educational use are pretty much unlimited. You can collaborate with others on the same book, order hard copies, or view & embed digital versions. Special discounts are available for educators. Tip: Coupon codes are almost always available at RetailMeNot (another website I can not live without)
