      Mister "Glogster" a lot of fun!!!

      Want to develop your students creative thinking along with language skills, have them try to make their own Glog:-) Glogster is a tool to make an online poster and share it with anyone you want! It's a good way to develop project based learning! You can assign individual glogs or maybe group or pair! Your students have to choose a topic and there they go! Here is a sample Glog created by an English teacher teaching the alphabet:

      I would recommend using is Glogster. I have tried making my own Glog and find it very useful for developing speaking and writing skills. It also requires a lot of creativity and also develops creative thinking. However, I think that students have to be at least low intermediate and have some command of using computers and internet.

      Happy Glogging!!!

      Hi Leman, can't wait to hear from you about your experience of using glogs! Tell me what you like and dislike about it.

      And, what do you think it can be especially useful for?

      Dear babakartal, I really hope that it will be useful for you! Do you use technologies in the classroom? If yes, what do you use? I am really interested in integrating technologies in the classroom:)
