What Can I Do With a Glogster EDU Free Account?

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
·         Allows teachers to sign-up using their Google account
·         Fosters creativity and the use of multi-media to express new understandings
·         Students do not have the use an email or register to use Glogster; they simply use their teacher's code (this code is provided to teachers when they sign-up for an EDU account)
·         Teachers can manage up to ten accounts while additional students can be registered using the teacher code
·         Students can share their Glog with their teacher by simply sharing the link

·         Glogster provides several tutorials on creating and enhancing your Glogs



Happy Glogging!
