Module 5

This module has taught me so much about creating and communicating online. I was not familiar with any of the web tools this week but really enjoyed learning and and exploring them.

There are so many different ways to use Bubble.Us across all KLAs. We are constantly brainstorming and mind mapping ideas with the children so to present it in a new and interactive way would be very beneficial. It would be great to add new information to the mind map as you worked through a unit of work. I also like the idea using the tool to pretest the students on what they already know on certain topics.

Glogster looks really interesting. I like the idea of creating a digital poster that can include several different web tools. I thought the example given in the module Decisions, Decisions: A trip to Europe was a wonderful way to use the tool in the younger grades. As a year 1 teacher I would create the glog. and then add the students work. The children would love to see themselves on a video or photo presented this way.
