**Lessons Learned**
There is not a great way for multiple students to edit the same Glog. I've used the "work around" of having the students work in one account, sharing the username and password for that account.
 * __Collaboration:__**

__**Project Templates:**__ I found that my students' creativity was somewhat inhibited by putting a "project template" out there for the Geometry Trig Project Glog. Some students commented that they liked having the template, but the students who wanted more of a creative outlet felt constrained by the template. The students can ultimately change anything about the template when you assign it with a project, but you might get more creative output without assigning a template at all.

__**Student Accounts:**__ A few students were absent and did not set up their student account on the same day that I had my students do it in class. I didn't worry about it, letting them simply send me the embed code for their Glog. However, I found it helpful to have all of the students added on my dashboard with the educator code, as it did afford me the opportunity to access their accounts and get the codes I needed myself or troubleshoot asynchronously for them (such as resetting a lost password).

**Tips**
__**Random Team Generation**__ You can use an online Random Team Selector to generate your groups for this project (or any project) either before or during class. The students get excited to see it generated during class, but you may need to consider the learning needs of the students in your class and do it beforehand if you have needs that demand accommodations that you don't want to draw attention to during class. Here are two of my favorites:

__**Student Accounts in Free Edition:**__ You are limited to 10 free student accounts with the educator free version. I would recommend setting up ten generic student accounts assigned to your educator free account and then dividing your students up into 10 (or less) teams for each project you assign, giving each group one of the logins for that project.
