80. WHY
Why do our students use
new media to show
understanding of
literature?
Saturday, March 1, 14

81. A few reasons...
Public exhibition equals higher quality
Authentic audience of peers (local, world)
Tech. infusion, building media literacy skills
Developing netizenship
Sharing and critiquing of peer work; deepening
understanding through dialogue (comments)
Reading and showing comprehension of literary elements
through transfer
Writing for an audience
Reflecting on self and others in the virtual world

82. Commenting
Saturday, March 1, 14

83. Students are expected to make comments that...
■ Refer to a specific idea of the post. ‘5’ quality specificity means that direct
quote(s) whenever possible.
■ Connect to the specific idea above by making a text-to-self, text-to-text, or
text-to-world connection.
■ Extend the conversation by asking an open-ended question–that is, a
question that cannot be answered with a one-word answer.
■ Have been proofread for clarity and any grammatical errors.
As long as they’ve thoroughly fulfilled the expectations above, then they can
have some fun with comments, e.g. include acronyms LOL or emoticons :).
