glogster.edu is a website that allows users to develop visually appealing portals which allows you to link audio, video, web pages, and text to the visual poster which is called a “glog”. This is a nice opportunity for teachers to be able to create a home for all projects related to a particular unit. The following are ideas for teachers to include in literary glogs. We often ask students to include some projects that are required to be on the glog while some projects may be a la carte (such as pick 4 of the following 10 choices)

Karen,
I love your examples of glog applications in literary classes. Would you mind sharing some links to some of your glog projects? I would love to see some examples of your students' work. We've been using glogs a lot this year. My teachers have asked for some suggestions for new glog projects. Your suggestions are wonderful.
Thanks,
Jan McGee
Thanks so much, Jan! We had so much fun creating the lessons! My other favorite way to use glogs is to create a portal for all of the resources used during particular projects - a new way to do a pathfinder - it's so cool - I can embed it right onto our website and the students go to it. I have a link to that: http://www.palisadessd.org/606342316104242/blank/browse.asp?a=383&a...
I worked with two different teachers this year on the glogs and the one that is done with the project is out on maternity leave - I will check in with the other teacher to see if there are some good ones that have been completed and let you know!
Here is one of the student glogs! They were allowed to select any piece of literature that they read this year. When you hover over the text, you will see the links activate. http://xbritt20.glogster.com/glog-2632-618
