They don't NEED to save the word processed file, do they? I'm not sure why they would need to be split into different areas. Maybe I'm missing something. In...
.another strategy: teach the kids how to copy their article (highlight and control-c in windows) just BEFORE they request publishing. This is something I...
I'll chime in now. Mark's strategy works really well. I use it all the time. My first choice is to use a word processing program, since my spelling is so bad....
In addition, they can copy/paste, then save but NOT publish which then shows the teacher that the blog is in progress, if I remember correctly. Slower students...

I do not think they can get all the typing done in the 20 minutes I have allotted. So I would have them save the documents and finish typing the next day. And...

I think it has! In my last job when I completed a document before it went to the editor I had to do a search and replace to take all of the two spaces out and...
