BoomWriter

BoomWriter is a excellent educational tool for educators looking for a innovative and easy end of the year project for students to do.  Best of all, it's free, and has an educational portal that allows teachers to create and monitor student's projects/writing.

BoomWriter is collaborative writing site that has students grades 3rd on up creating a digital book/story by writing a chapter and then voting on which chapter gets included in the finished product.  This process goes on until the story is completed and then it gets published and students can purchase their own book.  However, a teacher receives their first class copy for free.

Also, this is a great way for teachers to integrate Project Based Learning and technology into the classroom.  Educators have been using this around the world in many different ways such as for poetry, persuasive writing, and more.  Finally, BoomWriter has a fantastic collection of free lesson plans that shows how educators are using BoomWriter in their classroom.
