Video Journals on Voicethread

You have one Video Journal Art Critique assignment as well. This will be on a separate website called VoiceThread.com. You will need to make an account using your school email to submit your journal entries. You will also need to upload a selfie for your profile image.
  • For each video submission you will need to show your face, state your first and last name, as well as which period of art you are in BEFORE you start your verbal reflection. There is a video link below on how to use Voice Thread below.

Each assignment will be given through Google Classroom with a direct link to that weeks journal entry. You will need to submit your actual assignment Via video comment through using a computer.
The easiest way to complete this is from a laptop or computer with a webcam.


If you do not have a webcam on your computer follow these steps-
1. record your video response through your phone
2. email yourself the video from your phone so that you can access the file from a computer
3. upload the video file onto voice thread as a comment
