Today, I got to teach the class with my wonderful partner Caroline about Glogster! I really think everyone enjoyed learning about it and how you can use it in the classroom. I know everyone enjoyed playing around on their very own glog as well because it is addicting to say the least. Glogster is a FABULOUS web 2.0 tool that every teacher much know about! Basically, any type of assignment or activity that you would have your students do on a poster can be done better as a Glog, aka an online poster. Although the ways to integrate Glogster into the classroom are endless, one of the best ways is to have to your students create an "All About Me" glog so that they can introduce themselves to the class. This is perfect for the shy student so they do not have to stand up in class to introduce themselves and have to deal with being nervous or tense. This is truly one of the many, many ways that you can use glogster in the classroom.

Also, take a look at the glog in the blog above that Caroline (my partner) and I created to show during our presentation!
