Glogster

Here's another fun web2.0 teaching tool. Glogster is an interactive poster that the user can create for basically anything. I think this can be a very useful resource for teaching as you (the teacher) can creat a Glogster Poster that is related to the topics you are covering and have the students interact with it to learn more about your lesson outside of class time. I also plan on using it as a way to have students display their research on various topics or subjects. As a group project, it will allow the students to work together and be creative, while also fulfilling the task of learning about whatever it is they are set to research. My problem with creating a Glogster poster is that I'm not the most artistic when it comes to creating appealing visual elements, so my first glogster poster seems to be a bit of an eye sore. Well to me it does anyways. Feel free to check it out here. The theme is Halloween, which of course would be used in October to help teach about the traditions of the holiday as well as a bit of science thrown in with information on bats.
