I suppose less an real-time collaborative exercise, and more of a way to encourage short bursts of repetition -- in line with how debaters have to quickly formulate and synthesize speeches in high school and college. Writing is obviously not trivial to learn nor to teach, but rhetoric used to be the center of education during the classical period and being able to quickly organize ones thoughts is just as important as turning it into language.
