Glogster--finally, posters just got an upgrade!
This summer for an Education of Information Users course, I had to present a lesson that integrates technology and library skills. Immediately, I thought of Glogster--the media-rich, web-based poster that "lives" on the web.
As an educator, I have had a blast working with students in selecting the best presentation tools for their research or inquiry projects. My students want their projects to be memorable, dynamic, creative, and relevant, so when the options of posters, or Power Point presentations comes up, they often say that those are difficult for those with less artistic skills, and they can be tedious to create. So in the fall of 2009 introduced my students to Prezi. They used it to present math survey findings, science investigations, current events, and more.
For an older audience, I think that Glogster will be just as user-friendly and effective as Prezi.
Here is a 90 second preview of how it all works:
