Digital Writing with Digital Kids

I am fortunate that I have been able to be part of Area 3 Writing Project’s Summer Institute two years in a row and they keep inviting me back to meet the new group of fellows each summer. Typically, I return the first week of the institute to talk to teachers in my community about the digital kids in our classroom and the new digital ways in which they can publish to meet the demands of Common Core.  This year when I showed up there was a television crew from our local educational cable station, SECC, ready to record the workshop.  Feel free to watch it and let me know what you think.  Below are links to some of the resources mentioned during the workshop.
