Digital Posters

Digital posters can be used in the classroom for both instruction and assessment. Digital posters like Glogster create a dynamic, multi-media interface to engage students with learning. Video, images, websites or other interactive sites can be linked to one theme-based poster for teaching content or process in the classroom. Students can use digital posters to make their learning visible. Tools like Glogster can be used for review, synthesis, or assessment.

My Glogster poster is a review activity for students on the concept of "Writing a Summary." Links include songs, practice activities, and visual reminders for how Main Ideas and Details create a Summary. I would use this in the classroom as an engaging review activity before a summative assessment. I might also ask students to make a digital poster as an assessment of learning.
