Module 5

Some useful web 2 tools found in this module. Bubble.us is a great mind mapping and brainstorming tool for use in the classroom. I will definitely use this with my students. Firstly as a means of displaying the group's brainstorming ideas in a central location for all to view.Then students could work in pairs and individually to present research information under sub headings.

I found  glogster a very beneficial means of electronically displaying information collected on a topic. The beauty of glogster is that it allows for choice in the way information is  presented, students can be as creative as they wish. A variety of information is presented in a succent display.  I am in the process of developing a page on "Antarctica" to use with my year 6 students. Their gathered  research and information can then be available for all to see on the class wikki.  Glogster could also be used as an introduction to a topic for students.
