[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an English teacher, I often add visual components to assignments but students have an option to draw or find images from the internet that support their understanding. A lot of times it will be asking for a Google slide presentation where each paragraph is on it's own slide that has some sort of creative visual appeal to it. [b]It's basically the same 5 paragraph essay but now it allows students to express themselves.[/quote][/b] Why can’t students express themselves in an essay? Isn’t expressing themselves IN (written) ENGLISH one of the main goals of an English class? If they can’t express themselves in a 5 paragraph essay, it seems they need more practice writing 5 paragraph essays. [/quote]
