Crowdsourcing: Straight from the Classroom

I’ve used crowdsourcing in writing instruction here and there, but this was the first project I designed and taught using the strategy as a foundation for our work. The verdict? Crowdsourcing improves writing and engages students. In this post, I’ll share our process, and I hope others will find ideas and inspiration.

Student Agency and AI Tools: Leveraging AI for Writing Mini-series

Melanie Meehan2 Comments

Leah began a series about AI in writing instruction with a post about how teachers can use AI tools for planning and preparing for units. Sara kept it going last week with a post about creating demonstration pieces and providing feedback. Today, I completed the series thinking about ways to shift agency from teachers to students.
