This is a space where we can post practice SACs and use conferencing to upskill our abilities. Participating in a variety of editing processes is fundamental to developing writing competency. We will use Diigo to highlight, comment and bookmark each others' posts. We will do this in collaboration with La Trobe University Diploma of Education English Method students who are kindly going to participate in our blog as expert voices.
