Voki IdeasCreate avatars similar in appearance and record a
message that tells about themselves.Exchange avatars with e-palsELL students can use the speaking avatars to
practice and listen to their speech. They may use the computerized voice first then record their own voice when they feel more confident.
Create an avatar that resembles a character from a story, add a setting and give it speech. The speech could be from the story or a point of view from the character on an event.
Add your own images to the background.
