The World of My Husky

Glogster Experience


      Preparing a glogster page was the most entertaining and the easiest task from the beginning of the course.
      It was really an easy job after gathering relevant and necessary information. I chose the Siberian husky as my animal. I dont know why I chose it but it is probably due to its outer features: it looks cute to me. After gathering the required information, having the total freedom of editing the page ( missing the templates) made me feel enjoyed and happy.
       The shapes , text boxes , the design of pages are so attractive and catchy for students that the illustration of the same topic or notion in a traditional way ( on a white page) and in a creative way ( a glogster page) can arouse the before and after effect of the product advertisement in terms efficiency and accessibility  of learning and teaching . Using glogster, teachers can express the same things in a more interesting and authentic way and so facilitate learning. Black inscription on white paper can bore but colorful  design , little boxes , graphic and video attachments leave less chance for students to be bored or apathetic to the classroom context.
