Assistive Technology

When in a Creative Writing class you are usually given prompts. You can be given an assignment that tells you to write a response on what a piece of specific art may mean and the teacher can ask you to write 1-2 pages or they can have you write up to 5 pages. Some students don't know how to expand their minds with writing responses/essays. Students tend to repeat themselves in their writings when they don't know what else to say. I believe wordpress.com is something that can help students in Creative Wrting. Wordpress is an online blog that you can use publicly or personally. You don't always get free writes so wordpress can be where you can practice some of that to express your ideas in advance. Wordpress also allows you to view other blogs on other topics which can help students get an understanding of the best way to do continuous writing. Once students start to get ideas out on their blog they can start to feel more confident with their in class writing assignments.
