Abstract
Higher education is seeing increasing trends towards online education (Allen & Seaman, 2010). This chapter provides a framework for the inclusion of digital writing with online teacher education courses. As writing instruction and writing pedagogy moves from print-based literacy practices towards multimodal and paperless/digital writing practices (Mills, 2010), teacher educators must stay current and informed about methods that are best suited towards digital writing pedagogies. We provide four practical examples that showcase ways to support online learners with digital writing; these examples are shared through brief vignettes from four university faculty within a large teacher education program where online learning predominates. Specific support tools such as clear instructions, rubrics, procedural checklists, descriptions of digital writing assignments, and connections to theory and scholarship provide a starting place for those interested in including digital writing within teacher education courses, particularly online teacher education courses.
