Relative to Digital World

We need to teach students how to responsibly use digital tools in the appropriate context and environments to establish effective producers and consumers for their experiences outside of the classroom settings into their adult lives.

Apply what students use on a daily basis to classroom applications.

Integrated Language Arts is…ReadingWriting

SpeakingListeningViewing

and Visually Representing

So as a teacher of the integrated language arts classroom, I need and want to embrace different faucets of digital and technical writing that embrace all areas of the curriculum and enable students to use resources that will enhance their learning experience and opportunities in and out of the classroom.

Embrace the Possibilities…

Digital writing engages students with ‘something different.’ I think it allows a teacher to give even more options for a student to show how or what he or she has learned from a particular unit in their own unique way. I believe digital writing can reach,inspire and successfully challenge a struggling writer, advanced writer or an unmotivated or uninterested writer.
