 * Ivan the Terrible**
 * DISCUSSION: Because I am not a teacher or a librarian I created Glogs about subjects that interested me in high school. I think this Glog would be a great resource to use in a history classroom because the posters make things interesting and visually stimulation, much more so than a traditional textbook. This Glog would definitely provide students with information about Ivan the Terrible and the resources provided could also help them understand the political climate he created and lived through.

 * Greek Gods**
 * DISCUSSION: I have always been interested in the Greek Gods/Goddesses, but for this Glog I wanted to focus on the main three. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades are all featured in this Glog as well as how they came to be (Zeus' defeat of Cronus) and their other siblings. This Glog could be very helpful in a Language Arts setting. The Greek Gods/Goddesses play a large part in the story of //The Odyssey// and //The Iliad// which most high school students are required to read at some point. This Glog has links to information about other prominent characters (the cyclopes, etc) that show up in either of these famous books. This could be a good resource to help students write a paper about //The Odyssey// or //The Iliad//. It could also serve as a good alternative to the traditional character list.

 * Cyberbullying**
 * DISCUSSION: Cyberbullying is a topic that will continue to show up in schools. I wanted to create a poster with information about cyberbullying, what it can cause, and what you can do as a victim. This concept could be introduced to both students and parents and it might be a helpful resource to include on the school's library web site or wiki. This Glog has a lot of helpful information to help combat and understand cyberbullying. Students could also use this Glog to help them research cyberbullying for a technology or sociology class. As a teacher, this Glog could be helpful both in the classroom and outside because it is a very important concept for students to understand.
