how could you use Glogster EDU in an educational context?

Glogster EDU?

This is an online learning website which gives users a digital educational content and a means for creation. It was brought to us in December 2009 and it is mainly used by educators and students for interactive, collaborative education. It's an important part of learning, to use versatile means of resources. It brings another sense of versatility to the table which means that children have a wide variety to choose from. It allows both educators and students to publish and search for anything educational. 

You do have to pay a certain fee each year depending if you're in 'elementary', 'secondary' or 'faculty', this can and will be seen as a disadvantage, which means that maybe some people may not be able to get it and therefore becomes less popular due to the cost of $95 for secondary pupils per annum. This may mean that some children are excluded from this experience due to the cost.  

This platform seems to be very useful and I think that it would facilitate the searching for information and knowledge that children may need from the day to day schedule of the school day. It would also be a helpful way for the teachers to store all the plans and all the information that children will need to research for themselves. 
This education platform means that children can be independent and responsible for their own learning.
