Good Morning Grayling High School-

I will use this Wikispaces page to answer any of your questions...

These are the queries that have been asked so far....

Can PB Works or Wikispaces be used for a Webquest theme?

 YES! A wiki can become a webquest very successfully- I believe that the text in this webquest could be formatted for easier reading. Just my opinion...
 *  Students, Parents and any person with 'permission' can access the Webquest information.
 *  Only students with your permission can edit or add information and you can assign where they position their information.
 *  A webquest is presented with clarity for each section and digital resources can be displayed with ease.
 *  Webquest Example: Rock Write Listen

What is Glogster?

Glogster is an interactive poster. The educational version of Glogster allows you to register students (after you are comfortable.)

Glogster for Education: Refer to the Glogster page on this wiki for an example and directions.

Hint: Glogster can demand much memory. Consider that some students can be researching a 'team poster' while the others could begin the creation. Therefore everyone is not at the same website at the same time.

We explored some educational blogs and wikis (remember the difference) <span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%;"> Blogs are chronological- Your entry is dated.
