| Description | | Not every learner aims to become an online journalist (a blogger) but we all need to use the keyboard on a daily basis: emails, letters, reports, minutes of meetings, presentations, forum posts and more. Writing is an essential skill that requires extensive training and practise, practise, practise. Can any of these writing skills be trained in real-time? Can blogging and its exposure to the public assist or rather inhibit these skills? How can peer review enhance the writing experience? In this webinar you will learn how to use collaborative writing tools and how they can foster learning.
