Getting Down to Business

http://writingspaces.org/authors/cfps

So, we need to actually start writing, which is always the hardest part about writing, lol! The deadline is closer than I anticipated, but I think we have plenty done to get this in shape.

I think we have discussed some good ideas, and our proposal could touch on several things. Some ideas:
1. Benefits of collaborative writing
2. WHY would you write collaboratively - connect to workforce
3. What can come out of writing collaboratively
4. How do you write collaboratively.
5. Benefits of using technology when writing collaboratively

We can include some of the research we have already done, and the student voice could be our own perspective as students, coupled with our experience as instructors.

Great list. I think our project involves the topics of collaborative writing and new media writing. I love you point about collaborative aspects of writing in the workplace.

You mentioned our experiences as students and teachers. We should also add our experiences as professional writers--and how we collaborated with others to produce texts.
