Blogging in the Elementary Classroom. Reflections on Creating "The Digital Writing Workshop" on Prezi. The Presentation This Prezi moves through a series of ideas from the book, beginning with the cover, and then through three sections that (roughly) cover the ideas of being digital, crafting digital writing, and teaching in a digital writing workshop, followed by a photo from the classroom of my friend and colleague, Aram Kabodian.
Depending on how much time I have, how many questions I want to entertain while talking, and the overall goals I have for the audience I am presenting to, I flex my speed and delivery of the presentation. On the first "section" (for lack of better term), I show the book cover. I can tell some anecdote about the writing of the book, and I always focus on how the principles of the writing workshop—choice and inquiry, conferring and response, author's craft, publication, and assessment—are the primary components of the cover, not the fingers typing on the keyboard.
Finally, we move to the picture from Aram's classroom. Hicks02674Sample. Troy Hicks - The Digital Writing Workshop. Welcome to My PLE! Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us.
