Abstract :
Web 2.0 technologies offer technical and professional communication classrooms more advantageous conceptions and practices of collaborative writing. In this paper, I examine how new media technologies create a different collaborative writing environment and then discuss how these environments help collaborative writing methods create an alternative writing situation to those more traditional, aggregate models of collaborative knowledge production.
