This website helps students practice proofreading, spelling, grammar, punctuation, and capitalization all while practicing their reading skills and learning new information. Students can begin by proofreading a passage, then Quill will review their edits to show them what they got correct. This is where it gets powerful. A custom practice session then opens to help students review the grammatical concepts that they got incorrect. Teachers can set up a class and work on different grammatical concepts. The best part is that each student can work at his/her own pace and only practice the concepts that they need. It meets the following elements of the NCTE (National Council of Teachers of English) Framework for 21st Century Curriculum and Assessment:
Develop proficiency and fluency with the tools of technology
- Do students use technology as a tool for communication, research, and creation of new works?
- Do students evaluate and use digital tools and resources that match the work they are doing?
- Do students, independently and collaboratively, solve problems as they arise in their work?
- Do students use a variety of tools correctly and efficiently?
