Abstract

This short reflective paper describes the innovative use of the asynchronous multimedia communication tool VoiceThread. Initially the authors provide an analysis of the growing use of this Web 2.0 cloud based tool for teaching undergraduate law students in Higher Education (HE). The paper then goes on to discuss some of the practical applications of embedding VoiceThread into virtual learning environments such as Blackboard. In conclusion, the authors explore some further opportunities for VoiceThread use.
