Technology Resources for Students

on Saturday, October 31, 2009
I LOVE the OWL at Purdue. We use it all the time in Writing Fellows. It's a great resource that succinctly and comprehensibly explains how to write well. It encompasses everything from pre-writing strategies to how to avoid plagiarism to how to paragraph well. It's a great resource to share with your students so that they can easily look up information when they need it. I know there are a lot of style guides out there, but I think that this website is more friendly to techno-savvy youngsters, and also is a lot easier to navigate. (Have you ever tried to look something up in a style guide? It's awful!)

Technology in English

I don't know about you guys, but sometimes it feels harder to integrate technology into an English classroom than it would be in a different discipline. I found this website though, which offers a lot of information about how to integrate technology into an English classroom. I really liked it, so I thought I would share it with you.
