Assignment: Glogster
Due: June 8, 2010
Required Documentation:
Create a blog post that contains a link to your public glog and address the learning outcomes.
Learning Outcomes:
Q1. What is glog?
A1. A Glog is a poster that allows the individual to express themselves through creativity of their own. When a poster is created by an individual they can use images, graphics, sounds, etc., to make their poster unique. A Glog is used to express oneself, and maybe tell a story, or to illustrate who that person is and what he/she likes.
Q2. How might you use a glog in your class?
A2. A Glog can be used in a classroom as sort of an ice breaker tool for the students at the beginning of the year/semester. Because a Glog allows you to be creative in your own way, the students can create their own Glogs to express who they are, and then once finished, can share their Glogs with the rest of their classmates. This might be a way for the students to find out similarities amongst them and their friends.
Q3. What ISTE NETS T does the use of Glogster most likely correspond with in your opinion?
A3. I think that (2) Design and Develop Digital-Age Experiences and Assessments most closely relates to this activity. The subcategory that I think closely matches this activity would be (a) - design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity.
Q4. What is the problem (if any) with this program?
A4. I didn't really have any major problems with this program. The only thing I ran into was not having some of my pictures upload as quickly as others, which made me think I hadn't done it correctly. After this happened, I realized there's an uploader bar at the bottom telling you the upload progress of whatever you're uploading.
ISTE NETS T - #2 - Design and Develop Digital-Age Experiences and Assessments. (A) - Design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity.
