Reader Responses

In response to my call for reader input, here are some of the responses:

Reader Elise:

I follow you because I feel like the Elementary students that I work with are heading to a paperless system. I struggle, however, with how to balance their need to learn to read and write with books and paper with how to read online and type in the digital age.

I would love to hear more about how teachers might move to less paper at the elementary level.

Reader D.:

I'm interested in many things but especially how to entice the technophobes to march with us in the parade.

Reader Heather:

The tools have not been difficult; in fact, I love them. However, joining the conversation has been challenging for me.

Reader Foxdenuk:

Wondering if there is anything that you can find in books which you can't find on the Internet.

Reader Erik:

The process of getting students to listen to each other, even with tools like edmodo and google docs, has been my challenge.

I'll keep these comments in the front of my mind as I blog over the next week. As always, thanks for the discussion! Blogs without reader input and response aren't blogs; they're vanity mirrors.

You all make this more.
