@Dennis so they do need to have a name attached for their academic digital footprint to show.Carolyn F at 8:47 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
Dennis--we've also been thinking about public "academic" work by hs students as part of their college submissionsCarolyn F at 8:46 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
But we can't teach that lesson if we aren't teaching students in a public forum.Carolyn F at 8:45 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
It's important that Principals get that the concept of sharing can be safe also. We r teaching a life lesson if we address that.Carolyn F at 8:45 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
@Jane - use nickname or first name + initial or consider continuum using full name in 11th & 12th - needs policy rewriteDennis at 8:45 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web

@Adam They can comment on most blogs with initials or anonymously.Carolyn F at 8:37 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
@Carolyn, but then it has to be a public blog and my principal and some parents are worried about that.Adam G at 8:32 AM, 16 Jul 2010 via web
