Educators can even use their Voki characters to lead the discussion, to generate a lively classroom experience. Presentations can be created in minutes and teachers can unleash their creativity. “We can’t wait to see the creative ways teachers use Voki Presenter,” said Eric Kiang, Director of Marketing for Voki. “We are delighted to be able to open up new engaging and fun possibilities in the classroom for both teaching and learning”.
