BECAUSE DIGITAL Writing Matters BOOK GROUP

"As teachers we, we don't often spend enough time exploring technology and writing ourselves before  bringing it into the classroom. But I would argue that this kind of exploration is key to understanding the possibilities for the learning and critical thinking of our students." (Kevin Hodgson's Meandering Mind Blog as cited in Because Digital Writing Matters, p. 119).

"Playful experimentation and engagement are as critical for teachers as they are for students" (Elyse Eidman-Aadahl in Because Digital Writing Matters, p. 119).
