The process of editing and improvement of both vocabulary and sentences became clear to the students using Inspiration software, Microsoft Word and Smartboard Notebook software.
The sentence changed from the example above to 'He has shadowy stubble, as he sits in the dark; feeling gloomy, miserable and alone. He faces the shining light of the fire while his unshaven face shows despair.'
The students could post comments on a wiki reflecting on the process and and what they learned. The wiki also provided them with the opportunity to use some of the new vocabularly they had learned during their classroom sessions. They were required to write (over a five week period) once a week and include some similes, metaphor, onomatopoeia and personfication in their writing.
