Reflections

I learned a great deal about new literacies this semester as it relates to both teaching and learning. I learned that there is such much available to us as teachers in terms of new literacies, via gaming sites, blogs, presentation tools/apps and virtual classrooms.

The Impact of Using Blogs on College Students’ Reading Comprehension and Learning Motivation

GLOGSTER - Week 12

GLOGSTER is a relatively new site used for interactive learning in an effort to create posters, on a virtual customizable canvas. You can view, respond and share work done by other students worldwide.  It is a very cool concept and address students learning needs at every level with use of audio, video and text format, making it extremely user friendly this allows for educational affordances for all students.  Even ELL student may create using this site in a way that lends more creativity with research capabilities like Wikipedia. I like the flexibility of the site which lends its users to be as creative as possible in a limitless way. It does seem to be a bit pricey especially for students in the upper grades/ This is most certainly a big con when considering the use of this site for lessons and projects.
