Thing 17

wufoo

I had a lot of fun playing around with the form creation site, wufoo. I do surveys, sometimes, asking teachers for their input various topics.

A while ago I worked with a student newspaper that was published monthly. We did a survey each month about books or favorite hot lunch choice or pet preferences. If I had wufoo available, we could have done the survey on line.

I thought comiqs might be something I could use with struggling writers to motivate them to use a creative platform to organize their thinking and create some writing. It can be liberating for strugglers to have a limited space to write in. They don't feel like they have to fill up a page, but they can tell a complete story.

By the way, Hair Mixer is a hoot. You should try it out.
