the impetus
-previous book projects: one with an OSSLT class; others with photography classes- as a first step in shared or collaborative art /writing projects across borders-looking to the possibility of other meaningful connections (First Nations Art project, ‘Me to We’ project)

The Key To Powerful Use of Technology in Classrooms is
ESTABLISHING A PROTOCOL

Half the challenge
IS ORGANIZATIONIS ORGANIZATIONIt is important, when using wikis and other online learning environments to set up a protocol for the students to
follow.
This is what we did:

Organization
We set up 34 chapter pages as ‘beats’ in i in a Table of Contents.
Each beat represented a plot progression. Each Enhanced student
would write a chapter.Applied students worked in partners.They hit the Table of Contents link to
access their chapter page.

Writing is Real
Mr. D started the ball rolling by coming to visit the Applieds and giving a presentation about the
books he’s written through Rubicon and telling them about planning a book and the writing
process.

Establishing the BeatsFirst the Enhanced wrote the outline and wrangled about the details.The Applied class read and responded as a class fromthe screen, coaching them on the story.Engagement was intense on allsides, resulting in 329 commentsand revisions, all tracked on the wiki.

Working Together
The enhanced class’ writing and their active process raised the bar
for the Applied class.
The Enhanced class, as a result of the collaborative nature of the writing and because they were aware of working
with the Applied class, gained a meta-awareness of the writing process.

Writing the Story
The activity was intense. Wiki records show:
-329 discussion comments on 90 revisions of the outline alone;
-an average of 7 revisions per chapter on 10 Chapters by the Applied
-an average of 5 revisions per chapter on 24 Chapters by the Enhanced

Revision & Publishing
The Applied partners edited their chapters by copying them into WORD
and editing them on the screen, guided by the teacher.
Monitors in the Applied class cut and pasted the book chapters into http://www.blurb.com, the book
publishing site.

Time Investment
-3 weeks of Applied Class time from start to finish;
-about 5 days of Enhanced Class time and some homework time

the
unanticipated . . .outcomes
-the level of student engagement was tremendous-effects of modeling were huge for the Applied-Collaboration enhanced creativity, especially among the Enhanced students-PROCESS as well as the content was perpetually negotiated among students within and across classes; constant assessment-they invested in the project and saw it through to ‘publication’-writing for an audience made writing ‘real’-student demographics that do not intersect in real space, collaborated online without stigma-several students from each class pursued similar sustained writing projects independently afterwards
