Goals

Goals:

1. Expand academic conversations and collaborative research beyond each (45) minute class period.
2. Provide students with additional resources & links, class notes, and on-going writing support to ensure their long-range understanding and success.
3. Develop an on-line tool to facilitate and support a culture of analytical writing.
4. Foster an environment for multi-leveled conversations: student-to-student and student-to-teacher.
5. Offer school colleagues/administrators a beta example for the consideration of the use of additional blogging (and the implementation of other Web 2.0 tools) within the context of our unique academic mission.
