Week 10

Helping students improve their writing skill (Gabriela Orellana)






This Reading was very important and interesting because I didn't know this application and it draws my attention. The article is about Online Collaborative Writing Using Wikis and wiki is a website that allow you to improve the writting. Also, the students have the opportunity to use wiki in diferent ways like book reports, brainstorming wikis,poetry, school history wiki, exercise, class blogs  and planning a party or concert. Moreover, this website is very useful for teacher and students, they can create their wikis for free. Furthermore, wikis are easy to learn and use, the writting is a important skill in this a execellent oportunity to develop it. Besides, this is a good way to make students practice their writting skills, and teachers help students to improve their writtings giving them the steps that they need to follow to create their own ideas because it is not only let students do writtings task, but also to improve their writting skill is the way to monitoring them to do their task in a good way. Otherwise, there is another website which might be helpful for teachers to make students writting paragraphs and it is the blog.com, there students can write ideas about any topic using the steps that the teacher has given to them. In my opinion, this website is very interesting and I would like to apply in my classes because it may allow me to help my students.

  1. I totally agree Gaby!
    “Wikis" is a very attractive tool for every teacher who is looking forward to innovating his lab sessions, as you have written, it brings the chance to practice writing in several ways; from planning a party to giving their personal opinion about environmental political issues, collaborative writing brings a lot of profit. Either there are lots of grammatical mistakes or on the contrary, an outstanding writing, we should start looking at it as if it was the beginning of a new era in which students do not only expect to get feedback from the teacher but from their classmates as well.

But wikis offers a lot ways to work on that and they do no get frustration or bored .the blog.com is other side that is really helpful for pupilswhen they are structuring paragraps.
