Convergence Classroom is a blog that is supported by Columbia College and Chicago Public Schools to continue the conversation between teachers, artists and administrators on using social media in the classroom.
This blog has been used in the following workshops/presentations:

Student engagement represents two critical features of collegiate quality. The first is the amount of time and effort students put into their studies and other educationally purposeful activities. The second is how the institution deploys its resources and organizes the curriculum and other learning opportunities to get students to participate in activities that decades of research studies show are linked to student learning.
