I was able to chart engagement and direct my attention to students who weren’t engaged to help them through whatever roadblock was in their way.

In learning how to give effective, useful feedback, students do substantive, fundamental learning about writing that will make them better writers.

Eli’s analytics gave me a chance to make real time changes to my pedagogy, and the class could see why I was making those changes.

Projecting the live feed of comments allowed me to get out of students’ way while still reminding them that their work is public in our class community.

I truly believe that, if Eli is used well, anyone can grow as a writer.
