I recently presented at the CATE conference to a great audience of enthusiastic teachers. CATE, the California Association of Teachers of English, is a great organization with an amazingly supportive group whose heart beats with the love of the Writing Project, Reading Project, and all things authentic learning.
I presented on the topic of Project Based Writing, and while this keynote may not make sense to many of my readers, it will to those who were in the room and emailed asking to have it. So I’m posting it here.
Feel free to download the Quicktime of my keynote here. It’s sans sound, but you’ll get the idea.
In addition, I’ve included links to my handouts (sorry, we ran out that day!) because I know some teachers are looking to start jumping in right away.
Teacher Created Resources Internet Literacy Handouts
Checklist for Teach the Teacher
Many of the documents here I have been developing and tweaking for some time, and in 2013 some of them will become a new workbook from Teacher Created Resources called Project Based Writing. ?Check back next year for news on the book’s release date.
Hope these all help, take care, and if there’s anything else you guys need, let me know!
