toc = Lab for Monday, February 20, 2012 =

**OBJECTIVES for Lab:**
 * Complete the quizzes for chapters 7 & 8
 * Create a glog (digital interactive poster) about your unit
 * Embed the glog onto your student wiki page...
 * Look at at least two other people's bubbl mind map and make comments about their unit.

Step 1: Moodle Quiz

Step 2: Create a glog
Go and make a glog. A glog is a digital poster that you can embed audio, video, text, and images on for projects. Look at my example and see tutorials below to learn about glogs. My Example: media type="custom" key="12562144"

Below is a tutorial

Here is a video illustrating how teachers can use a glog in their classroom media type="youtube" key="n7Go-piDcRg?rel=0" height="315" width="420"

Here are three (3) ways you can use the glog: A) Create a glog, which is a digital poster, about the technology hardware, software, and/or Internet tools you plan on using in your unit. This means that you should think about every lesson in your unit and come up with what you might think you need (i.e. YouTube video, find one that is relevant and put it in your glog; LCD projector, write it down and put a picture, smartboard, etc...)

B) Create a glog that introduces your students to your unit in order to provide background knowledge of your topic that you will use to introduce either your unit or lesson #1. For example if you are doing a unit on World War II (or weather, or whatever else...) create an introductory activity that the students can interact with to help them develop an understanding or background knowledge about the topic.

C) Create a glog as an example for a student project that you will use in your unit. In other words you create an example of a project or activity that they are expected to complete as a part of your learning activities for a lesson in your unit. For example if you want your students to complete a glog as an activity to demonstrate their knowledge/mastery of a topic within your unit (i.e. create a glog about the rise and fall of Hitler's Third Reich in Germany).

Step 3: Embed Glog on Student Wiki
Embed your completed glog on your wiki page.

Step 4: Comment on Others' Mind Maps
Go to two of your peers wiki pages and comment about their mind maps that layout their unit. Give feedback by raising questions or asking for clarification...

Step 5: Review your two articles for Midterm
Click here to review your two articles; they will be needed for the midterm. Pay attention to details.
