Wikis and blogs are new avenues to get our message to our students. This generation of students are wired differently so we need to prepare them for the world they will be living in fifteen years from now. This technology, with teacher instruction and clear expectations for the students reaches out to all types of learners. Using a blog or wiki with students taps into reading, writing, listening and speaking. The best part..it's authentic. Maryann from Rochester, NY Techallen,

I enjoy writing but I feel that my blog, like any other should have some sort of purpose. What that is...well...I'm still trying to figure out, but as I learn more it will all come together.
