Activity 3: Collaborative Writing

Blogs can also be used for collaborative writing activities in the classroom. You can set up a blog with numerous 'owners', so that a whole group can contribute to the same blog. Have a look at 'Femme Tales': a group of students and teachers at a Victorian school who are writing a 'chicklit' novel together.

Have a think (or chat with your neighbours) about some ideas for using blogs as part of students' writing processes in the classroom. If you come up with some good ideas, post them below this post by clicking on the 'comments' function and follow the steps.
