The writing workshop is a place where students can get unbiased opinions to answer the burning questions: "Is this piece of writing good?" and "How do I make it better?" Students post writing projects and receive helpful suggestions from the instructor and other students about ways to improve their work. The work the students post can be fiction or non-fiction and the source of the writing can be assignments from other classes, topics based on materials from Scholars Online literature courses, or writing the student is doing on his or her own. There are links to ideas for new writing projects if the student does not have anything currently in work.

Prerequisites

No special background required.

Teacher's notes:

Students will sign up for the workshop on a half-yearly basis (September through the end of January; then February through the beginning of June) Students are expected to follow the course's guidelines for peer reviews. Students should also be willing to give and take recommendations with grace.
