“Effective teachers use technology during instruction to offer more individualized student attention, to provide hands-on experiences, and to shift the focus from teacher to student” (Strong, J. and Hindman, J., 2006).

“They not only ask questions but teach students how to ask quality questions themselves with appropriate follow-ups for promoting, redirection, and clarification.”

[Brad Weinstein @WeinsteinEdu]

Moving away from a traditional mindset of teaching writing, I follow the @JasonReynolds83 school of "Write it, then right it"

👉 They peer review
👉 THEN a formal writing lesson
👉 Self-assess and plan for the next draft
👉 Then revise (RIGHT IT)
