Center for Teaching & Learning

Writers are born, not made.  Citing sources is easy. The passive voice should be avoided. Texting is killing writing.  Good writers are successful in every context. These are just some of the bad ideas about writing that get in the way of learning (and teaching). In this workshop, we’ll talk about common misconceptions about writing; we’ll also discuss disciplinary notions of writing.  We’ll use participant experiences to identify strategies for replacing bad ideas about writing with better ones. 

This meeting will be held IN-PERSON in 302 Howe Memorial Library (WID Conference Room). You will receive a reminder prior to the event.
