Glogster
Glogster is a great way for students to use technology to create an "interactive poster" for building comprehension. This is also a great format for teachers to create "interactive posters" to enhance students' reading experiences. As described on Glogster interactive posters can be linked to a classroom website and give the teacher and students access to a mutual place of learning which can be accessed from any computer. Students can use their Glogster to post virtually anything from videos, music, text, links, pictures, and more, the list goes on and on! It is simple enough for even a young student to understand how to use and allows the teacher to have access to multiple students work on one site. It also allows for the teacher to post work and show off students work for the class, their parents, even the school and district to see!
Glogster EDU does have some cost associated with it for a license for a class or a school. However, any student or teacher can create a free account to utilize the interactive poster, it will simply not be linked. According to the website, "Glogster EDU meets or exceeds national educational technology and content area standards for teachers and students of all ages: K-12 & Post Secondary" and is National Education Standards Approved.
Note: Glogster is not only for education! It is a free website stand alone and can be used by anyone!
