    mentor us and/or collaboarate with us in the learning process

Yes, it was read at author’s chair or published in a school anthology. Yes, it went home and made it on the fridge. And, if it was lucky, that student writing made it to a local newspaper or other venue for publication. When the internet really hit big at the turn of the 21st century, writing teachers felt as if they could have a purpose and audience beyond the classroom and school.

  • We need
    students to create links, both mentally and digitally, from what they
    know already, to what they are trying to know. We are stressing
    “cognitive leaps” and learning by doing as often as we can, but there
    are inherent problems with that.
  • Connections are easily the most valuable learning experiences in my own growth---and something I work to make real for my students every day.
