Glogster Reflection

Glogster would be a perfect fit for my teaching situation. My students (grades K-8) are homeschooled. Almost all have access to the internet. As an advisory teacher, I could easily assign a student a project that would utilize Glogster. For example, a 4th grader who is studying CA history could make a poster demonstrating his or her knowledge of the state bird, flag, government, Native American tribes, etc. Using Glogster is an environmentally friendly assignment too as students are not required to copy reams of paper. The standards that are covered would depend on the specific subject (why, it could meet almost any standard!), but the most obvious standard that would always be met would be in the Visual Arts category:
2.0 CREATIVE EXPRESSION
Creating, Performing, and Participating in the Visual Arts
Students apply artistic processes and skills, using a variety of media to communicate meaning and intent in original works of art.
Skills, Processes, Materials, and Tools 
2.1 Demonstrate an increased knowledge of technical skills in using more complex two-dimensional art media and processes (e.g., printing press, silk screening, computer graphics software).

All in all, I am thrilled to discover this neat Web 2.0 tool and can't wait to share it with my families and colleagues. Not only are students learning or demonstrating knowledge of a concept, they are (finally) being able to create!
