Another excellent Edublogs.org weblog



I have been and am currently working on a presentation that I am supposed to be conducting on Monday in my Literacy and Technology class. This presentation is on the use of Scrapblog.com and Glogster.com to inspire creative writing in students. I feel that both of these sites have great features, but so far, I find Scrapblog to be easier to use. Something that I have noticed about this site is that it takes a very long time to upload pictures from my computer though. There is an option to take pictures directly from another internet site such as Flickr or Photobucket which does seem to work more quickly, but I did not have all of the pictures that I had wanted to use on this site. I have included two of the pages that I created in this post, but there are only three pictures due to the amount of time it takes for each picture to upload. I have really enjoyed creating these pages and I hope to create more in the future. I have been working on scrapbooks for the past couple of years, but I was not familiar with any online scrapbooking sites before taking on this topic for my presentation. I am excited to use this is my classroom someday, and I think that it will be very motivating for students.
