Ok, now I know this wonderful example of a student actually blogging comes from my school, but I just wanted to highlight the good stuff that her teacher Tom McHale is doing with the class. Note not only the linky, reflective, deconstructive style of her writing, but also see the RSS feed pushing content to her page about the stuff she’s reading and writing about. It’s coming from Furl where she’s using the annotation feature when she saves her links to provide the summaries you see on the page. See on the class homepage the conversations they’ve started about Blinq, the new Philly Inquirer blog, and how the author Daniel Rubin is responding to them. It’s good stuff. It’s not hard stuff. And it’s good learning.
