A few years ago, I used Glogster in my classroom, but
honestly had forgotten about this great tool until recently. Glogster EDU is a
web 2.0 tool that allows users to create virtual posters to demonstrate their learning
and share with others in a creative way. Students will have the ability add
text, audio, video, and images to enhance their virtual poster presentations. Although the premium version of Glogster EDU
does cost money, there are still several ways that your students can create and
share Glogster for free in your classroom.
PROS of Glogster EDU Free Account
