I've been thinking, as I am reading, how to implement this concept in the student's library visits to the library. Maybe I could collaborate with the middle school reading teacher to have the students blog reactions to the book they are reading? This bears more thinking about.

The idea that students think in "hypertext"; hopping from one idea to another; thinking in parallel rather than sequential lines is a good reminder. I have seen this in teaching how to search online. I am also interested in the idea of the Read/Write Web; using the web as a communication tool.

Carol,
ReplyDeleteGreat page! I agree with the idea of "hypertext" and students thinking that way.
I am at the same point as you - trying to figure out how to collaborate with teachers at school this fall in using this great tool.
