Participation: Response to Ashley's Blog

When I read the blog about OWL I became intrigued. It sounds like a great program and tool for students. I also started thinking about how much I could have benefited from something like this in high school. I feel like I had very little preparation and background in writing before I was expected to show my teachers my works. By allowing kids to explore different parts of technology, they become able to learn on their own, as well as in the classroom.
