Module 6 - Bubbl.us & Glogster

These two tools were great to explore. I didn't know even of them existed until this module.

How many times do we get kids to do a mind-map or brainstorm on a bit of paper! It then gets lost or just stuck in a book. What a great way to get students engaged in an activity that has predominately been 'paper-based' in the past. I will certainly utilising this tool as soon as possible.

Glogster - an electronic version of the 'paper/cardboard' based poster. My students will be more willing to do a 'poster' this way and put more effort into it.

These are two great tools that have immediate application in the classroom. Can not wait to show the other teachers.
