Chrissy's class blog is wonderful. I really like her idea of using numbers for teacher identification. I think that students will be more apt to have thoughtful discussions and responses if the names of the students are kept secret. This sor of reminds me of the cyber bullying on which Barb and Darlene presented. On Chrissy's class blog, she has prompting questions and ideas for her students. I think that this will definately enhance Our Town. Not only will students gain a better understanding of the text, but they will be able to use and becom familiar with technology.
Chrissy I give you props!

Bridget,
I really like the ideal too, that she gave the students numbers. Not knowing who they are responding too really should help them to respond to everyone rather than to just those people who are their friends. Hopefully, it will also encourage students to write something that has content and good critical analysis to it.
Hi Bridget, I have just had my message to the class returned to you w/a heading that your mailbox is full. This is your Cortland garzo50 address.
If you have another address you want me to send the email re: class on the 16th too, please get it to me. Thanks!
Karen
