Students use Blogs to Reflect upon Writing Process for their Articles

Students in Lynn Klyde-Silverstein's capstone journalism class have blogs about the sectors that they've been reporting on. These student beat reporters use blogs to show their work and to look at those articles while considering their writing process when they return to the classroom. Klyde-Silverstone said "this project will force students to ask themselves some important questions about what they're learning and what they can improve on." An additional advantage to keeping a blog for these student reporters, according to Professor Klyde-Silverstein, is "it's a great way to practice writing for the Web."
