Web 2 apps-Voki

Voki is part of a web 2 application. I think it will be good to use this web 2 app in an educational context because it allows children to be able to create a character to say their answers; they may even want it to look like themselves. You can use Voki in an educational context by using it for reciting the pupils’ work, for example if the children made a poem or a story. You can also have different Voki characters, this is an advantage of using Voki because you can use a character from their story for example if they wrote about a genie in their story they could use a genie Voki. It also allows children to learn to write their stories in a different person for example they can use first or third person to tell the story, so it can be like the character is narrating. Teachers can also create a Voki to teach children something minor for a few minutes because then they get some interaction with it and they can find it interesting.  Voki can also be used for numerous of purposes some of these include, homework, setting assignments and class work or projects.
