Glogster
Assignment Title: Glog
Uses in the Classroom: A Glog can be helpful in the classroom to create a one-stop-shop for several different types multimedia related to one topic. Glogster provides several pre-made layouts for easy and quick use.
In Kindergarten, the students would not be able to create a Glog independently. However, a Glog would be an easy way to have younger students check out different videos and images related to a topic of study, without having the students surfing the Internet. Older students could create their own Glog in place of a timeline, a book report, or any other presentation that students must create.
Issues to Consider: Creating a Glog is not as easy as some other online multimedia tools and may cause frustration for students. Students may also not know the copyright laws for images and videos that they may want to use in their Glog. Teachers would have to set-up the time to create a Glog for the younger children to use for each topic that they were interested in presenting.
