Title: Buried in Wires Teaching Writing in the Digital Age
Url: http://buriedinwires.blogspot.com/p/sample-student-work.html
Description: This blog provides a unique vision and some examples of how bring a digital workshop to life in your own classroom. Joel Malley, teacher in High School in Buffalo New York shows his strategy in implementing the digital writing workshop. He also provides examples of his students work.

Here is a quote from Joel, “I started this blog mainly to work out my own thoughts. We teach in a divisive time. I feel like as a teacher I am constantly being pulled in all directions; by the Core Common Standards, by those who argue for the canon of Western Literature, by my belief in student choice and autonomy, and by my belief in writing workshop and working alongside students. These ideas seem to be colliding with greater ferocity than at any other time during my career. This is my attempt to make sense of it all.”
