students
FROM THE ELA TEACHER:
It is most commonly used for sharing my flipped classroom
videos as well as a platform for students to blog and get
feedback on their writing. Right now many kids are posting
on the peers' Defining Moment Personal Narrative blogs and
in the next few weeks we'd like to add a multimedia piece
and start working on digital portfolios.
We, as a teachers, have also tried to use the site to model
effective feedback and the important role that collaboration
plays in the wirting process. The kids very much enjoy that
their writing can be made public and it's built a nice
community within the room too.
