Dear Louise, a nice example of blogging for writing development was the "evolving essay" project carried out a couple of years ago by one of London Metropolitan University's undergraduate writing mentors, Lynn Reynolds. Because Lynn was frustrated at being given perfect models of academic writing which hid the process and often seemed unachievable, she set out to reveal the process of writing an academic essay at every step. She used a blog for reflection and discussion and a wiki for displaying drafts. There's lots of good stuff here and some very illuminating discussions.
