Are you assigning more reading and writing, but enjoying it less? Interested in helping your students acquire the careful reading, thinking, and writing skills that they need to succeed in your courses-without increasing your own grading workload? Need discipline-specific tips and hints to help your students motivate themselves, understand the reading you assign, and turn in better written exams, papers and projects? Then come to one of our workshops!
Each freestanding session, facilitated by Deborah Wilhelm, will focus on your concerns about student reading, writing and thinking. In addition, we'll offer a faculty writing review to help you refine your own writing skills. Each workshop is designed to specifically to meet the needs of the individual faculty members attending, and you may attend one, some, or all of the sessions depending on your needs and preferences-no commitment required!
Share ideas with other faculty: Faculty design and test writing assignments for their disciplines. Establish "standards" for measuring student success. Learn techniques for responding to student writing effectively and quickly.
