Nota

My fifth graders voted this the very best digital poster in their class. We made these Nota-pages using Notaland. Each student highlighted what they viewed as important moments in technological history. Pong was one! My only complaint about Nota is that they are not easy to print and "sharing" does not always work correctly. I think there are problems with the flash updates related to the software.

What the What, Glogster!?!

My fifth graders have been using Glogster to create digital posters. Each chose an important moment in history and was going to highlight facts about that event as well as explain its importance. Today when we went to login to complete the project we received this screen below.

The kids could not access their projects and I had to think very quick on my feet. We made a quick turn and used Nota for the day and I'll have them write an evaluation comparing the two tools for homework. But still! What the what, Glogster? No notice? The students were on the site as late as yesterday!?!
