The Writing Center is a place where you could take anything and they would help you make your project the best it can be. When I say anything, I mean ANYTHING. Along with drafts of essays, they also look at blogs, multiomodal projects, etc. Although it is called The Writing Center, not everyone who is there is an English colleague. There are people from different fields of study that can help with anything that you bring.
For those people who do not like to trek through the cold winter weather, The Writing Center offers online sessions via Skype, Google Docs, etc. The appointments last exactly 50 minutes. Every student has a two appointment limit every week. If you are not able to arrive to your appointment, you can simply go on the to website and cancel. In my opinion, I do not like when teachers know my every move. So, The Writing Center will not let the instructor know of your attendance unless given permission.
Using this resource may not be mandatory, but it would not hurt to give it a shot.

This is very helpful. I like the fact you can stay in your dorm and still get help via Skype. This blog will be very helpful for student who don't really know much about the Writing Center. Very well done!
ReplyDeleteThis is a good analytical memo. It gives a lot of information without rambling on and getting boring to read. Job well done.
ReplyDeleteThis memo is very informative so if any student who didn't have an idea on what the Writing Center is, could just read this and they would get a full run down on what the tutors can help with and the availability of the tutors.
