What do we want a site like Youth Voices to be? on Teachers Teaching Teachers Wednesday
What do we to be able to do on a school-based social network like http://youthvoices.net ?
With the support of the National Writing Project and the design and technical expertise of Bill Fitzgerald and his colleagues at Funny Monkey, we have been building a Drupal site for a group of teachers whose plan and collaborate together.
Susan and I have invited Chris Sloan, Fred Hass, George Mayo (maybe?), Sheri Edwards, Michael Dodes... and others who have wanted to or have actually used Youth Voices this year.
We want to have a careful, honest exploration into what worked well this year and what might have gone better. What do we want our site to do? What do we want our community to do? What's the difference between creating blog posts and discussion posts?
We might also get a report from NECC.
If you've considered using Youth Voices... if you are interested in the power and potential of a Drupal site to build community... If you have students post on blogs or discussion boards... We'd love to include you in this conversation.
