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.

See anessayevolves.blogspot.com and evolvingessay.pbworks.com

Best wishes, Peter
