Workshops

Teaching with Writing: Quick, Practical, and Expert Advice for Busy Faculty in All Disciplines
In fall 2007, the Writing Program offers three 55-minute workshops, each of them twice. Our format will be a simple light lunch at noon (pizza, perhaps), followed by a 15-minute presentation of practical advice and strategies (accompanied by handouts or resources) with 25 minutes for questions or discussion. All workshops will be held in the Paul Chan Family Classroom, Penrose Library 220, in the northeast corner of the main floor.
Space is limited: RSVP to Amy Kho at 1-7448 or by email.
