Description:

Workshop in Writing (WRT 108) offers ongoing practice and instruction in writing and critiquing writing. Students meet weekly with a writing center consultant to work on forms of academic writing relevant to their spring coursework -- forms which may include summary, critical response, the argumentative essay, the lab report, and others. Students may also choose to revise essays completed in previous semesters or work on other non-fiction projects. Guided by a writing center consultant, students plan, draft and revise their writing, critique each other's work, assess their own writing, and participate in group sessions on writing issues that the group faces. The semester's work will culminate in a final portfolio that features polished essays and an overall self-assessment. WRT 108 is a two-credit course which is graded pass/fail.
