We fix this problem like we fix all #literacies problems. Recognizing that it has always been a tool of oppression and the only way to escape the same oppression. Literacy is power. The web is power. We are teaching our children to be powerless in the face of social media.

I know I am supposed to tell you not to just go on the literary element scavenger hunt, where you make one poem with a simile,one with a metaphor, one with alliteration. Yet #edu307 I have fond memories of doing this in 6th grade. I typed them up on a half tuypewriter/half word processor thing and colored each page.

This summer I will get students who have had wordpress.com for three of my previous classrooms. The tool anxiety and the 1/2 semester it takes to learn the blogging workflow should be something to reflect on and not worry about. Trust is hard with change.
