How I Use It

This was perfect for my 5th graders who created a planetary travel brochure. It's also worked as a fun way to showcase their creative writing stories.

My Take

Students can use Glogster to create beautiful and dynamic presentations. It's a new and exciting way to present content, and allow for not just text but graphics, links, and video. However, I found that my students get so caught up in the design of their Glog (choosing the perfect background, adding graphics) that they ignore the content. I've also experienced some major heartbreak (granted, this was back when Glogster was pretty new) when bugs in the software meant that students lost all of their work.

Fun but distracting and buggy...
