    When I attended VSTE 2008.

    I loved your presentation! There were super ideas I can use!

    One of the presenters showed us VOKIES. Do you know how to create and use them?

    Thanks!

    Thanks Susan for your kind comments. I have not heard of Vokies, but will ask my colleagues to see if they went to one of the presentations. I’ll do my own research also to see what I can find out.

    I found it! Check it out. It has some great possibilities, for cuing and motivating students, however, as with many things, could be misused as well.
