我々、大人は当然のことながら、
子どもたちにも様々なウェブサイトにコメントできる機会が増えています。

どんなコメントが出来れば良いか、つまり優秀かという判断基準もありますが、
つまりは、サイト主への働きかけの礼儀や、対話として成り立つための手順であり、
インターネット上でのコミュニケーション力を向上させることと同義でしょう。

日本の学校でも、ウェブサイト検索やブログの作り方を教えてる前に、
そもそもの「コミュニケーション」を学ぶ時間を入れることを優先してほしいですね。

I think this is the first time I’ve come across an article that deals specifically with teaching students how to leave great, constructive comments on a blog or social media website. Can someone share this with, like, everyone on YouTube?

This is my third year of blogging with young students and I am still learning all the time. In previous years I believe I progressed much too quickly from having students comment on the class blog to writing posts. My students never really learned how to compose a quality comment and I believe I didn’t set my expectations of the students high enough! I was happy for them just to be commenting.

This year I am taking a different approach. Inspired by the amazing commenting skills of Mrs Yollis’ Third Grade students, I am putting a lot of effort into teaching my students how to write quality comments on posts before we move on to writing posts.
