Teaching Writing in the 21st Century (Thing 2)

I looked for a video that had to do with writing because that's the bulk of what I teach, and I feel like a lot of the "21st century learning" around writing is just about the new publishing apps. I like this video a lot because it acknowledges that importance of face-to-face collaboration and handwriting along with typing and online editing/revision.

  1. Liked all the research they cited. What is SIMS?

    1. I did too! Ever since I came back from grad school, I've tried even harder to keep up with the research around educational theory, but there is SO MUCH. I have a giant to-read pile that is probably going to be obsolete by the time I get around to it. SIMS is the school where the teachers who did the video teach: Saltspring Island Middle School in British Columbia.
