Like Bill Hart-Davidson et al, I am interested in ‘evidence-based’ learning, or the fostering of learning through tracking student writing as it evolves and intervening in that process in key places. This is one of the major opportunities of digital writing: it makes student writing visible in new ways and to multiple audiences, such as teachers, other students, or even community partners outside the classroom.

Evidence-based learning through digital writing is all about assembling a toolkit within a class that enables all the participants in that class to collaborate, assist each other, and learn from one another. It is about creating dynamic hubs of writerly activity in which learning can happen.

21st Century Skills are so last century! :

“The new mantra, the next big thing, among educators who need a serious sounding phrase to rattle around in reports is ‘21^st Century Skills’.
