Process
This page will give you the steps necessary in order to complete the given project. If you haven't already viewed the rubric on this project, please do so now. It may be helpful to print out a copy of the rubric in order to refer back to it as needed. To do that now, please click on the Evaluation page. We have already used Glogster to complete an interactive poster on the Properties of Multiplication, so if you need a refresher you may view any of the tutorial/help videos that I have provided on the Resources page. When you're ready to get started, I would suggest following these steps:
- Research famous mathematicians and their contributions to the field of mathematics in order to choose one to complete your project on. There are resources available on the Resources page to help with this process.
- After you have chosen your mathematician, continue utilizing the resources provided on the Resources page to find all of the necessary information needed to create your interactive poster. Record the information that you want to include in either a word document or in your math notebook. You may use resources other than the ones provided as long as they are credible and up to date.
- After you have gathered enough information to cover the requirements as outlined in the rubric, which can be found on the Evaluation page, continue to htts://edu.glogster.com/login to begin your interactive poster. Use your username and password, which should be written in the inside front cover of your math notebook. If you cannot find your login information, please see me.
- Begin by choosing a template, or creating your own original Glog.
- Start adding your information to the Glog. Keep in mind that you'll want to ensure that the project is visually appealing and easy to read. (Please note: darker backgrounds are harder to read)
- Once you have included all of the necessary information in the Glog, begin adding clip art and other graphics to make the project more visually appealing.
- Test all of your links to ensure that they are active and accessible.
- Once you're sure that all of the requirements have been met and all of your links/graphics are working, have a friend check over your Glog to ensure everything is in good working order. I will be available to look over your project and provide feedback only if you complete your project early.
- Save your Glog, and log out of Glogster
