The Technology of Reading and Writing in the Digital Space: Why RSS is crucial for a Blogging Classroom

As students and teachers take to the Read-Write web, we need to begin by framing the approach in a new way to contextualize writing better, and, more importantly, to make classroom blogging (and even more broadly writing in digital spaces) more productive for the students and professors. In particular, I want to show how the technology of RSS is crucial both from a theoretical and a practical standpoint to any digital writing, but especially to any blogging classroom.

Blogging: It's Elementary!: Teacher Introduction

This webquest is designed to introduce elementary students to blogging. Its intention is to get teachers and students thinking about using blogging to develop literacies in the elementary school. The goal is to use blogs to engage students in thinking and blogging about their learning and what it means to them. Topics for the blogging posts will be pulled from the classroom curriculum. A focus on the Six Traits of Writing and Blooms Taxonomy will be used as students blog/write to learn and apply what they are studying in their class curriculum. Although written for elentary school students, the content could easily be adapted for middle school.

This site corresponds to the BLOG WRITE link It’s second nature for us and our students to engage others in dialogue f2f. Commenting has great potential for extending learning and deepening understanding through meaningful dialogue in the blogosphere. Through an examination of powerful and significant comments, and exploration of suggestions for nurturing and guiding comments, meaningful online dialogue can become second nature to us and our students too.

Blog Write

This blog is interesting as the teacher explicitly discusses the six traits of writing when composing blog posts. She gives guidelines for making comments as well. Take a look at the students' own blogs with their posts on this topic. Take Derrick' Documents (left column) for example. He has a great post where he links each of the six traits to a classmate's blog as an exemplary user of the trait. Check it out! P.S. OHMYGOODNESS...thought this was a high school blog! These are 5th graders!
