Writing, Technology, and Teens

Teens write a lot, but they do not think of their emails, instant and text messages as writing. This disconnect matters because teens believe good writing is an essential skill for success and that more writing instruction at school would help them.

It’s My Life: Multimodal Autobiography Project

www.readwritethink.org/lessons/lesson_view.asp?id=1051

categories: language_arts shoreline_secondary

Change to Podcast- In this lesson, students write autobiographies, illustrating the stories and setting them to music. Music is a powerful tool to evoke emotion, and students will carefully select songs to accompany the stories from lives. Students brainstorm lists of important events in their lives, along with images and music that represent those events. They then create storyboards in preparation for the final PowerPoint project, which they present to their peers in class. If PowerPoint is unavailable, students might create posters and play soundtracks using cassette or CD players.
