Explain Everything is a versatile, cloud-based digital whiteboard platform designed for teachers and students to create, present, and collaborate in real time or asynchronously. Compatible with nearly any device, including iPads, Chromebooks, and web browsers, it offers an infinite canvas for drawing, annotating, importing files, recording lessons, and sharing content instantly. Teachers can create interactive presentations and video tutorials, while students can collaborate through shared projects. The platform includes templates, engagement tools like spinners and polls, and integrates with popular learning management systems such as Google Classroom and Canvas. The free version includes up to three projects with one slide, and a 15-minute collaboration with one other person.

tag(s): collaboration (105), Whiteboard (10)

In the Classroom

Have students create visual vocabulary cards on a single whiteboard slide, using drawings, annotations, and voice recordings to explain the meaning and usage of new words. After reading a story or novel, students can recreate a key scene on a single slide using images, sketches, labels, and narration to demonstrate comprehension and analysis. Have students record a short reflection or hypothesis after an experiment or lesson. They can annotate a diagram or photo while explaining their thinking, then share the recording. Use the limited real-time collaboration feature to have a pair of students work together on one slide to brainstorm ideas for a project, story, or debate topic, within a 15-minute time limit.

Wondercraft AI Podcasting is an online audio-creation platform that allows teachers and students to create podcasts, voice recordings, and narrated projects using artificial intelligence. You can type a script, paste text, or upload notes, and the site generates realistic voices, music, and sound effects without needing recording equipment or editing experience. The tool also allows collaboration, sharing by link, and exporting finished audio, making it useful for digital storytelling, presentations, and media projects. Because it requires an account and uses AI voice generation, the site is best suited for older students or teacher-managed classroom projects.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (257), digital storytelling (158), podcasts (150)

In the Classroom

Have students write a short story, myth, or personal narrative, then use Wondercraft to turn the text into a narrated audio story with AI voices and sound effects. They can choose different voices for characters and add background music. Students can research a famous historical figure and write a speech that person might have given. They then use Wondercraft to generate the speech as an audio recording using an AI voice. Students can write simple sentences or conversations in a foreign language and use the AI voice generator to hear correct pronunciation. They can compare the generated voice with their own reading.

Waveroom is an online recording studio that lets you record audio and video directly in a web browser without installing any software. The platform can be used to create podcasts, interviews, lessons, or presentations, and it supports multiple participants recording together with separate audio tracks for easy editing. Because sessions can be shared by link and recordings can be downloaded in high quality, the site works well for student podcast projects, interviews, storytelling, or multimedia reports. Teachers should preview the site and guide students when using it, since an account is required to create recording rooms, and content can be shared online.

Hume AI is a New York-based research lab and technology company that develops emotionally intelligent artificial intelligence capable of understanding and responding to human emotional cues across voice, text, image, and video. Its key tools include Octave, a context-aware, expressive text-to-speech engine; EVI, an empathic voice interface that interprets tone and timing; and Expression Measurement, which analyzes emotional signals across various media. While the platform offers a free tier for experimentation, more advanced features, such as higher-volume text-to-speech, custom voices, and full access to EVI and expression Application Programming Interfaces, are available through paid plans. This makes Hume AI a valuable option for educators interested in exploring emotion-aware technology in digital storytelling, SEL instruction, or interactive learning environments.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (257), social and emotional learning (145), text to speech (22)

In the Classroom

Have students use Hume AI's expressive text-to-speech tool (Octave) to bring their creative writing to life, experimenting with tone and emotion to match their characters' moods and intentions. Ask students to analyze emotional tone in speeches, commercials, or video clips using expression measurement tools. Let students record and analyze their own speeches to identify how effectively they convey emotion, then revise and re-record to improve delivery and emotional impact.

Create flipbooks from your documents or artificial intelligence, or start from scratch with FlipHTML5. Free plans offer five daily uploads, six pre-designed layouts, and mobile-friendly options. Choose from several language options to include in the book's contents. Choose from several AI generators for creating storybooks, magazines, flashcards, and more. Utilizing the AI generator to create a book requires several minutes, so it's important to plan for this option ahead of time.

Make a flipbook of a presentation as an engaging alternative to a web page or PowerPoint. Share classroom information such as rules and expectations in an easy-to-read format. Use this resource as a great way to bring digital storytelling upfront in your classroom. Make photosynthesis a story instead of bits of equations and information. Portray a historical period or create books of different political or societal opinions. Create a flipbook with the viewpoints and personalities of characters in a story. Practice a different language by creating a themed flipbook. Lower grades can combine writing into a class flipbook to be shared online or read aloud. Any written assignment can easily be re-visioned as a flipbook! Make your literary magazine a flipbook or build new poetry collections during poetry month. Share all your flipbooks on individual laptops, the interactive whiteboard, or the projector. Create simple flipbooks of Dolch words for beginning readers.

Use the Poem Generator to introduce students to different forms of poems through exploration and use of the generator's features. Challenge students to identify the features that indicate various types of poems. Create a class Padlet, reviewed here, with columns for each type of poem, and ask students to share their creations in the appropriate column. After students have had time to experiment with the Poem Generator, challenge them to create poems without using this tool. Extend learning by adding a reading of their final project to Adobe Podcast, reviewed here. Ask students to create podcasts that include their reading of the poem and a short discussion about the features that identify the poem as belonging to a specific genre.

After creating the virtual gallery, students can write descriptive captions or short stories explaining the significance of each photo or piece of artwork. Organize a virtual "gallery opening" where students guide their family members through their online exhibitions using Artsteps.
