Being rigorous does not mean giving ridiculous amounts of work.

@shochstetler @MackelMiss @NDOWUnmask @ScintoCity @lifeasstory Yes! We need to give students the opportunity to write for themselves and their own healing, rather than solely writing for a grade or to meet specific expectations #WhyIWrite #NDOWUnmask

[Megan Mallon @MissMallon]

@LowtherTeaches @NDOWUnmask @MattRKay I agree Noelle! I think writing with your students is so important so they can see our process, and we can work to break down the power structure and co-construct with them!

@NDOWUnmask I feel that I was able to unmask my writer identity in my creative nonfiction class here at ISU and was able to write about and for myself as opposed to writing for a grade or to reach a standard #WhyIWrite #NDOWUnmask

[Megan Mallon @MissMallon]

@NDOWUnmask When I was in elementary school I started journaling every night about my day. Looking back on what I wrote is quite entertaining, but that is when I started to feel like a writer. #WhyIWrite #NDOWUnmask
