VoiceThread bridges the gaps between rehearsals, classes, and studio sessions

Multi-Modal Feedback

VoiceThread enables instructors and peers to provide rich feedback directly on student artwork through voice, video, and drawing annotations.

At Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, 77% of students reported learning was just as effective online with VoiceThread as in person

Accretive Learning

VoiceThread enables students to record performances on their own schedule, self-evaluate their work, and receive detailed feedback—creating a more thoughtful, iterative learning process than traditional live-only assessments. Students can revisit critique repeatedly, building a record of their learning over time.

"Most noticeable was the shift in student engagement since we started using VoiceThread...student engagement now seemed more authentic and spontaneous."

— Erika Safford, Music and theater instructor at Baltimore County Public Schools

Accommodate diverse learning needs, naturally.

The platform's support for students with diverse learning needs demonstrates its effectiveness in creating inclusive learning environments. By offering multiple modalities for both input and response—voice, video, text, and drawing—VoiceThread enables all students to demonstrate their understanding through their preferred communication methods.

"Students noted that the tool helped establish a sense of community and reinforced the impression that the instructor was involved in their learning process."
