Final Project

So for my final project I'm working on using Glogster to create an example of what my students would use Glogster for in a lesson. Ideally, the students would create a Glog (online poster with pictures, graphics, audio, and video) that would answer the question "Who Am I?". This is an assignment that would take place within the first two weeks of school, when I am getting to know the students. This ties into history in several ways. First, they are creating a primary document that social historians may look at and see how teenagers in the early 21st expressed themselves and lived their lives. Second, this activity high-lights everyone's distinct and individual story, even if they live in white suburbia. Students also get to show creativity and get to know each other. I think this will be a fun way for students to realize both what they have in common with their peers and how everyone is a special individual.

Project to be posted next week.
:D
