VoiceThread

VoiceThread was the most confusing for me out of all of these three options. I didn't quite understand how to get the voice activation to work (I also do not have a microphone on my laptop). so I only used the written comments.

I feel that this is the most relevant to a mathematics class. It would be very easy for a student to follow how to graph a function or follow how to solve an equation using this program. Actually, in high school, my Calculus teacher had a smart board, and whenever he had to miss class, he would tape his voice to the slide shows so that it was basically a normal class. It was really cool that he was that up on technology at the time, and it was great not having a 'blow-off' day whenever we had a substitute. I definitely see the importance of this program in a math class, though I would have to explore more to know how to better apply this.
