This document outlines a 4-stage process for developing a collaborative learning environment using technology. The stages are: 1) Immersion in the technology tool through an example Voicethread, 2) Creation of content in small groups to add to the Voicethread, 3) Production of content by uploading pictures and comments to the Voicethread, and 4) Reflection on how the technology tool can help learning both for students and teachers. The goal is to build community through telecollaboration using an online discussion forum and wiki.
