  1. “Using Google Docs to Improve Student Writing: Larissa Pahomov at EduCon 2.3” was interesting for me to read; I especially liked the evolution of the 2Fers. One concern I have echoes one in the article: What about the reliance on technology and its shortcomings? What about access to computers, internet time, etc. Even though I know that multiple drafts and process are excellent, and I usually include the writing process, I have limits on how many times I want to see a specific piece of student writing. I do find that peer review and revision is effective, and I use that.

  2. Aloha Ellen. I’m looking at the homework for 2/14 – 2/15 and we’re suppose to read the article and answer some questions under #2. Is the link broken? I can’t see the link to the questions. Please let me know. Mahalo.
