What is Glogster?


According to César Vallejo Martin - Albo (2010), "Glogster” is a web 2.0 tool that lets you create digital murals easily and simply. In these murals may appear:

.Sounds
.Videos
.Images
.Texts
.Links to other websites

The sounds, videos and images can be uploaded directly from your computer or we can insert them from other websites. In addition, you can record sound and video directly with a microphone and a webcam for later use in our poster.
It is also an attractive tool because it offers plenty of variety in styles and designs to set the titles, backgrounds, objects, audio-video, picture frames... 
We want to add in our poster. Glosgster is characterized by its versatility, simple operation and profitability didactic.

Advantages for the teacher:

.It is a valid resource for presenting the contents of a motivator, as it is a remarkable resource and easy to use.
.It is a way to present learning content so that they assimilate more easily.
.It is a resource that promotes the development of skills, especially creativity.
.It is a fundamental element in the construction of learning and that can work both individually and collectively.
.It can be applied to any area of the curriculum.

Advantages for students:

.It is a tool to expose their homework with new technologies
.It is a tool that favors the development of skills, particularly developing creativity and imagination
.It gives support in oral or written work.
.It facilitates relationships as it is used collectively.
.It respects the rhythms and styles of learning.
.It is a way of presenting the learning content so that they assimilate more easily.

  1. Wonderful idea the Glogster! The same as Glogster we can find many tools in Internet to motivate in easy way our students. The area of TIC talks about many possibilities with advantages and disadvantages for using new tools were unknown for us. Suddenly we discover tools, examples, new creation and new ways to learn and teach, motivating and enjoying with students.
    Apart from Glogster there are also tools like; Puzzlemaker, Smile, Hot Potatoes, JClick, Task Magic, Webquest, GenWord or Quandary to create new materials. Also useful tools to compile our material or share them in an; Electronic portfolio, Webs, Wikis, Blogs or podcasts. Maybe, if look for listen activities you could find interesting tools as; Voxopop, Skype, Listen and Write, Wordle and Reading planet or Story birds to create stories.

  2. Hi Eva:

    Your blog is fun and colorful, I think the design you have chosen to catch the attention of those who visit your blog. I think the most important part of your blog is that any child could work with the tools provided by you and thus practice the language in a fun way. Your blog is very handy, congratulations!
