UCITE seminar for Thursday, April 11: Helping students become better writers, part II - Responding to Student Texts

In last week's UCITE session, professor Kim Emmons (Director of Writing Programs), Dr. Megan Jewell (Director of the Writing Resource Center), and Dr. Erika Olbricht (SAGES Instructional Coordinator) discussed how to help students become better writers by focusing on syllabus and course design strategies, featuring structural issues such as how much time to allow for writing, activities to promote revision, peer review strategies, syllabus design, how to include the Writing Resource Center, etc.

In this follow-up session, they will discuss strategies for responding to student writing, including identifying patterns of error, helping students become efficient self-editors, and using writing to support and enhance critical thinking.

Please join us for this discussion from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. in the Herrick Room, which is on the ground floor of the Allen building (at the corner of Adelbert and Euclid).

Pizza lunch and sodas will be provided at this session. To help us estimate the amount to order, please let us know if you plan to attend each session by emailing us at ucite@case.edu.
