Listen to Jennifer Higgins of Wilson Middle School in Modesto, California, talk about the reaction to the story she published:

“Our school has really gotten excited about TweenTibune after an article about our school was posted.

The students were given the site at their computer lab time. I was amazed at how excited they became.

Students kept interupting me to tell me about yet another interesting article they had found. Students quickly signed up to be able to comment on our story and other stories.

Students were discussing articles and sharing information with each other even though they had the choice of continuing to play their computer games. The majority had chosen to switch to TweenTribune.

The stories are interesting to the kids. They can access the site at home and share with their friends and families. They can comment on the stories that they have read and read what other kids have written.”
