I've wanted to create some sort of writing portfolio that follows students from grades 7-12. BUT, I want it to be electronic and available for teachers and students.
Wouldn't it be a great resource for writing those college entrance essays? Wouldn't it be great for teachers to see the progression of a student's writing skills?
Alas, I can't seem to get our technology department to go along with me on this. I need to keep pushing, but I run out of time and ability to reason with them. Unfortunately our technology department does NOT have anything close to vision or even a framework for 21st Century learning..... BUT they do keep students safe from porn and Google Earth.
