= Helpful Hints =
 * Uploading usernames and passwords may be challenging. Some browsers are incompatible with the upload process for Glogster.
 * Set clearly defined expectations about the work you expect. A rubric is very helpful.
 * Although Glogster is easy to use, we recommend that students have some experience with some of the other online tools we have discussed before using Glogster, mainly because students become so enthralled with all the options available in Glogster that they may lose sight of the lesson objectives.
 * Glogster takes longer than the other tools recommended, not because it is difficult to use, but because students become so engrossed in the process of creating their Glogs. Since many of our students do not have computers at home, we have had to carve additional computer lab time out of our schedule for them to work on the Glogs. The excitement, engagement and quality of work we are seeing had convinced us that this is a good use of our precious instructional time.
 * We conduct our Glog assignments under Educational Fair Use Guidelines. We are working on a way to incorporate Credits in our Glogs, but have not decided on the best way to do this as of yet. Students copy URLs of sources in another document for a Works Cited list. We are exploring what other schools do as for as citations for Glog sources.
