Welll I like thi idea and method of learning because it teaches the student how to use the computer as well as the othre things that they would learn without the computer. What interested me the most was the kidspiration part of it because it is targeted at a younger group of students and to me that is amazing as well as important. I would be blown away if my first grader came home and was knowledgeable in using the computer. I would also love to be that teacher who taught the student how to use such a merged program such as this one.
I think a combination of typing in microsoft words where it will tell them of their mistakes, this program, and doing writing hands on will enhance a students writing. Well there are always students that will finish before others and they can help the ones who may be struggling a little more. Evan as a younger student I can get them in study groups to do group activities to make sure that all of them are getting it. I can also help them set up bloggin sites where thay can look at each others writings and comment on it as well as I comment on it.

Nowadays kids are using programs on their computers like AIM and MSN so when they type they tend to simplify words. For example, "u" instead of "you." You seem to find more and more kids that do not even know how to spell certain words anymore because of the way they use Instant Messaging. A program like this would definitely help the students with how well they write.
