TTT http://edtechtalk.com/ttt turns to +Dawn Reed  https://twitter.com/dawnreed this week Wed Mar 16 at 9pmET/6pmPT +Al Elliott  https://twitter.com/ellication and +Karen Fasimpaur   https://twitter.com/kfasimpaur and I (+Paul Allison  https://twitter.com/paulallison) plan to have a conversation about linking literature with cultural study, inquiry and online conversation. 

If you haven't read it yet, you should check out Dawn Reed's and Troy Hicks's recent book, Research Writing Rewired: Lessons That Ground Students’ Digital Learning http://www.corwin.com/books/Book243264 We'll ask Dawn to recap some of the main points in her book on TTT, with a recent project she has done with her 9th graders, reading To Kill a Mockingbird.

And we want to go one step more. We will be looking to how we can create online Open Educational Resources with Dawn's spin on teaching research writing and literature in a blended classroom. How could we make available the kinds of experiences she does with her students within a "Mission" format that we have on http://youthvoices.net/missions

So that's our task. Join us if you wan to help us think these things through and build rich online experiences for students!

We'll see you at http://edtechtalk.com/ttt at 9pmET/6pmPT on Wednesday, March 16.
