Module 6

Creating and Communicating Online 
Bubbl.us is a free website for mindmapping online. I would use this site for brainstorming as a class using my IWB or the chn could access it via laptops to record and organise their ideas individually or in pairs. Students can collaborate on each other’s projects via the site through ‘friends’ or a link. Once again, this tool can be used across the KLA’s. Projects can be saved as an image file and then used in other documents.
Glogster  and editorial cartoons – Glogster is an online poster. It can be used to make editorial comments on current events or news stories. Chn show their understanding of a current event by manipulating text, graphics, videos, pictures or sound files to create an interactive online poster. This can then be embedded into a wiki, blog, or school /class web site. They can make posters as advertisements, to present their research on a topic or summarise a unit of work. Glogster is a motivating way to share ideas and a great assessment tool to culminate a unit of work.
