Textbooks to Chromebooks 4-Glogster

Today I would like to discuss Glogster.   Glogster is a combination of blogging, social media, and digital creation.  The students can use an educator code to join or they may be signed up by the teacher.  There are 60 templates to choose from which made this a little easier for students to create their first glogs.  These multimedia posters may be set to private or public.     After choosing a template the students will have options to enter text, images, audio, video, graphics, and data.  I found Glogster to be a helpful tool for allowing students to either summarize their learning or in the creation of material to teach others.  We didn't start using Glogster until April of last year.  A year subscription for a secondary edition license, 125 student licenses, cost $95 per year, but we purchased it during a discount special for $38 for the first year.
