Enhancing Writing in the English Classroom
Since I teach English, I don't normally have my students do much writing, so this will be a challenging topic for me to address. Just kidding. I think something I will be doing is based on a suggestion that one of our instructors mentioned, namely: have one student per day be responsible for blogging the daily activities of the class. This will make everyone be responsible for paying attention. Also, it will force each student to compose a blog entry a couple of times every quarter, and each student will, theoretically, do his or her best writing to avoid being ripped to shreds by other students who might comment on the poor writing/grammar and/or bad information reported by the student.

I like that idea, but what if the student doesn't write it?
