Glogster!

Now that you are wrapping up your action plans, share what you have learned!!

Using www.glogster.com, create an interactive poster highlighting the main points of your action plan:
  • Give important statistics related to the issue you are addressing, including the websites where people can find more information
  • Share videos or pictures related to your issue (cite all info properly)
  • List tips for taking action related to your issue

Important skills to remember:
  • make the statistics real to us
  • find videos that shake us out of our complacency or show us ways that other people and/or communities are dealing with the issue effectively
  • use color, fonts, graphics creatively and effectively
  • use correct conventions and effective word choice
  • use the technology effectively so everything runs smoothly
  • start work, stay on task and complete the assignment without being reminded or prompted.
  • work well with your partner, making sure his/her point of view is fully heard and considered; allow each others talents to shine
  • cite all research, photos and films properly
