FALL 2005 WORKSHOPS
From
Dialogue to Draft:
Linking Informal to Formal Writing
Wednesday, November 30, 2005
Out of the dialogue generated by informal writing emerges material which can
then be shaped into a formal assignment. Student writers who go through this
process stand a better chance of submitting successful final papers. In
this workshop, we will consider ways to change students’ perceptions
of formal assignments as merely “products,” and discuss how to
create assignments that build on and consolidate the writing and thinking of
the entire semester.
