In regards to technology standards, this Web 2.0 tool covers many standards. The tool helps with improving communication, and the students can use the tool in and out of school. It also helps the students to express their ideas. They can go back and edit and revise their Voki so that their end product meets the class objective. Voki can also enhance student learning. They can assess their learning in the class as a formative assessment, explain how it can support their learning, and use the tool to reflect on what they learned.

Voki is a nice tool because it is so easy. I think it can be motivating for students, especially to get them to write in a script format--as long as it is not overused. Fortunately, because it is so easy, it doesn't require you to use it 10 times before your students get the hang of it.
