For the past year I've been doing a bit of writing around tools that facilitate reading and writing on the web. In an article I wrote for the
International Literacy Association,
Annotating Online, I do some reviews of applications like
Citelighter,
Diigo,
Crocodoc, and
Mendeley. They all have their strengths for helping students write and collaborate while they conduct research
Another article I wrote for the ILA,
Online Peer Reviews Improve Literacy Instruction, is about how I use
Eli Review in my classes. In the article I also cite decades of research that have found that peer review not only helps writers improve, but even the act of peer review helps students improve as writers.
