Students will be able to post their original writings to our writers WebPages. They then have the opportunity to read the postings of other students and send constructive cristism to form a thread. Once students receive this feedback from their peers they can edit their work and post a final version to the news group. An online editorial board, made up of teachers around, choose exemplary pieces from these posted as final versions and submit them to some international magazines where they are put together to form the journal and or Published in SWC MAGAZINE, which will be introduced later.
The website is under construction, but a sample of it is here: http://swc2.gicug.com/indextry8.html
