Innovative language arts teachers are finding that adapting writing instruction to technology can enhance engagement without sacrificing the fundamentals.
Emily K. Reuter's insight:
Insightful article with comparisons on teaching writing the old-fashioned pen-and-paper vs. technologically advanced mediums for digital writing. Included are several creative ideas, technologies and platforms that can be adapted for personalized learning plans for teaching writing in the online or traditional classroom.. For my own students, I would use Wikespaces for a small group to assemble and contribute individual pieces of writing with an overall goal topic in mind. This builds creative writing skills as well as group collaboration skills, a much necessary component in today's workforce.
