Bubble Comment

This is a nice wee site, that allows you to leave a video comment on any website. This is ideal for teachers to leave comments or instructions on websites, that students may be directed to as part of their assignment.

From the bubble Comment website, simply enter the web address of the website your students will visit, and record your video message. The video clip is saved and a unique url is generated. Use this link to direct your students to the website. When they click the link the website will load along with your video comment.

Because the video is stored on the Bubble comment website, you’re not interfering with the actual site the students are visiting.
