What IS Glogster?

1.\n A creative, dynamic, and innovative digital outlet that captures learner's excitement for online creations, keeps learners engaged in course content, and makes teaching and learning more fun.\n 2.\n A private and safe platform, monitored directly by teachers. Teachers control all the activities of their learners.\n 3.\n A valuable teaching tool that integrates diverse core subjects including math, science, history, art, photography, music and more for individual learner portfolios, unique alternative assessments, and differentiated instructional activities.\n\nFor Learners:\n\n 1.\n A fun, imaginative, and powerful learning experience which fosters independent creative self expression, positive learner-teacher relationships, and teamwork on collaborative class projects.\n 2.\n A vibrant, multi-sensory learning experience which integrates learner's knowledge and skills into traditionally text-oriented subjects and motivates learner's desire to explore topics in which they may previously have been less interested.\n\n

"Glogster is a powerful tool for students to use to create online collages that they can share with their friends and classmates. If you're not familiar with Glogster, it can best be described, as Amy Mayer did here, as an online poster creation tool with music. Glogster for Education gives teachers the ability to create accounts for their classrooms. Using their Glogster for Education accounts, teachers can assign to and manage individual accounts for their students.\n"
