چکیده

This paper presents a case study of a web-based on-line collaborative academic writing project by students of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) at two Higher Education institutions in the UK. The project aimed to develop the students’ academic writing in English by exploiting the informational and geographical gaps between them. The study outlines the logistical requirements of such a project and describes why changes had to be made to the set tasks. It then discusses the observations made and illustrates them with examples from the data.
