Glogs

Here are some sample Glogs I've created that might be useful for the classroom:
===This first one is dedicated to futuristic novels for young adults. Since it's my first attempt I kept it very simple but I hope it sparks reader's interest when they are trying to think of a good book to read.===

==**** I think that Glogs would be a great way for students to present information they have found on a certain topic. Presently in my social studies class, my students are working on an Ancient Rome research project. We are working with the media center specialist to learn how to research, write researchable questions, and where to find the information we are looking for. When we are done with the research portion, students will need a way to display what they have learned. I would like to use Glogster for this purpose, especially if it means that all of the students' work could be published in one place where everyone can check them out. **** ==

===When students finish projects on a computer, (or really just in general) they always ask the same question, "I'm done now what do I do???" As a teacher, this question gets old fast so I try to always have things set up for them. Using this glog, I've added links to the different pictures. Now I did say where each picture would take you but I did this because I think it would give students more opportunity to explore the sites rather than just skipping over the ones they thought sounded uninteresting. I thought this might keep them busier longer. I also kept the page bright and colorful since they didn't really need it for information purposes. I realize it's a little overwhelming :) Hopefully, it serves the purpose I had in mind.===
