Connective writing as explain by Will Richardson is “the ability to publish in a variety of media with the intention of connecting and sharing it with others who have an interest (or passion) in the topic.”
He explains that there is a continuum of connective writing. “Real blogging” is the best definition of connective writing. By using hyper links within blogs one is able to transform a “real blog” to a “complex blog.” By students creating blogs they are already accessing the highest level of Bloom’s Taxonomy. If teacher provides open-ended questions using the questions found here, they mold the students into higher level thinkers. Blogs are ever-present in our society, by having students use them as connective writing tools we are creating 21st Century Learners.
The Bloom's Digital Taxonomy Pyramid is complete with links and can be found here.
