Texting and Multi-Modal Texts Continued

The important things I learned from the video are texting is not writing, speech came long before writing, and language is speech.  But the most important thing I learned is that a whole new language has developed among our young people.

Blabberize can be used for many different things within the classroom.  As an educator, I could easily use Blabberize to have my students display their learning creatively, help ELL students to enhance speaking and listening skills, to create a new way to introduce themselves to the class at the beginning of the school year, and many other different things.  It would be easier to use Blabberize for middle and high school students but could be effectively used in the elementary schools as well.
