2005 Summer Workshops at Messina Hof
- June 23, 5:30 - 9 p.m. and June 24, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
- July 28, 5:30 - 9 p.m. and July 29, 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Faculty and Graduate Teaching Assistants are invited to this workshop, free of charge. We will analyze models (samples) of professionally written papers of the type you want students to produce in your class, and we will learn how to use this analysis in teaching writing.
Participants should bring two samples of professional writing. They can be of different types or the same type. For example, you might bring a sample of a lab report and a research report, two lab reports, or an article written to the public about science, and one written for an academic journal. If you have exemplary student papers you prefer over professionally written samples, you may bring those.
If you need help finding samples, contact Valerie Balester or Susan Goodwin of Evans Library Instructional Services.
