Troy Hicks and the Digital Writing Workshop (3rd in a series) on TTT tomorrow (Wed. 10.14.09) 9:PM Eastern / 6:PM Pacific
In this final episode of our three part series, please join Troy Hicks, author of The Digital Writing Workshop, and Director of the Chippewa River Writing Project at Central Michigan University, as we continue exploring the principles and practices described in the book.
For this third episode, we welcome three teachers to the conversation as they discuss how they teach students to craft their writing through conferring and response:
- Melissa Pomerantz of Parkway North High School in St. Louis, Missouri, will describe how she uses audio feedback to respond to students through virtual conferences.
- Heather Lewis of Waverly Middle School in Lansing, Michigan, will discuss how she guides students through the revision process with Google Docs.
- Joe Belino, a teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages at Montgomery County Public Schools in Gaithersburg, Maryland, will discuss the ways in which his students offer response to one another through the use of Google Docs.
