As you teach writing for the Web

Jacqueline Marino offered advice for teachers. 1) All Web writing doesn’t have to be short. Most sites include long stories of investigative nature. 2)Ttreat blog as a form of journalism. See Sunlight Project and Reznet. 3) Experiment with writing that isn’t nonfiction, such as poetry (livehopelove.com) and comic book (Ottawa Citizen – 70 year of Superman). 4) Consider your students – Millenials who are interested in social issues. So share nonprofit and activist Web sites (Grist and Wiretap). Julie from her iPhone
