Developing from an in-service course on blogging and podcasting, six East Dunbartonshire schools decided to embark on a project in English Language which would link their schools using online tools. Staff collaborated online using a wikispace to plan and implement a project which aimed to provide pupils with a real audience for their work, develop peer assessment skills and encourage collaborative working. http://www.ltscotland.org.uk/slf/previousconferences/2007/seminars/usingonlinetoolstodevelopcollaborativewritingandpeerassessment.asp
