Revisiting Writing in Our Classrooms Workshop

 October 21 12:15-1:30p in the President’s Conference Room 1 (RO 527)
Students tend to overemphasize the final submission of a writing assignment which results in work that is underdeveloped and ultimately unsatisfying for both them and instructors. But students are likely responding to greater social forces in our product-oriented society and corresponding habits and thought. This workshop will cover how to scaffold writing assignments that create student buy-in from early stages of the assignment through more process-oriented checkpoints that lead up to the final submission.
Facilitated by: Alwin Harahap  (Faculty, English)  and Amy Wan (Faculty, English)
