“Posterous makes blogging easier than ever.”  Andy Ihnatko, Chicago Sun-Times

Jenny Johnson collaborated with the Library Media Specialists for her HCA II classes to use a microblogging site – Shout’em! 

All students logged into the blog and a few students at a time entered their thesis statement.  Students used valuable communication and critical thinking skills as they collaborated with their peers to provide suggestions and input for how each student thesis could improve. 

Students were able to receive instant feedback from their peers and exchange ideas.  The interactive nature of the activity provided an engaging and relatable process for students to connect with the curriculum.
