This site was developed for university students to collaborate on writing
projects. Ruth has also been developing software for language teaching

Write Away! aims to showcase good writing by Australian adult migrants
learning English. Writing can be the result of classwork or totally independent
work. Material can be sent and used at any time and we hope to put together
two collections of good reading a year for both class and individual use.
