BoomWriter

Imagine being able to write the first chapter of a book, or section of a short story, and have your students continue it. ALL of them. Students each write the next chapter/section, as you provide feedback and assess them individually, and students vote for their favorite (without knowing who wrote what).

BoomWriter allows teachers to have students collaboratively write a story, and even publish it as a real paperback book. It can help students develop vocabulary, with activities built-in to enhance and assess students' vocabulary levels. Best of all, it is completely free, and integrated with Google sign on for students.
