Tech+Tool+1



Glogster is a social networking website which provides users the opportunity to create interactive multimedia posters. These glogs, or 'graphics blogs,' can be loaded with any combination or amount of text, photos, drawings, videos, and sound files. Check out the website by clicking on the Glogster logo above to see some examples. For a small fee you can create a Glogster account for your entire class!

This tool could be used by teachers as a creative method for engaging students in classroom content by making and showing glogs as a hook at the beginning of a lesson. Teachers could also utilize Glogster in their classrooms by giving students the opportunity to make glogs for classroom presentations or as a fun way for students to get to know each other and express their individuality at the beginning of a school year. As their website claims, Glogster is a great way to "engage your students, inspire curiosity, and excite learners."

Below is an example of a Glogster created by a teacher for an art history class.
