10-second review: We need somehow to post our students’ written ideas in markets and malls and everywhere else the public gathers. What our students write should not remain enclosed in the classroom.

Comment: Interesting idea, but much would depend on how these written words are displayed. People who are in public places are there for a reason and will not be tempted to deviate from their purposes by spending time reading students’ writing. Using various-sized texts and pictures could cause some people to stop and look and go on to read. RayS.
