Class Platform: Virtual Learning

Day/Time: Wednesday, 1:30 - 2:30 PM, February 3 - April 14, *10 week class*

​

Class Description: Have your writing read and critiqued by your peers! Class participation will include both reading your work and providing positive feedback and editing suggestions for the other members of the class. Writers will have the opportunity to present their work at least every other week. Each member will provide enough copies, double-spaced, of two to three pages of their work to distribute to each class member, allowing written critique to supplement the oral discussion. Fiction, non-fiction, poetry, essay, or editorial—all forms can be presented for review. Evaluation will be for both content and grammar, with positive praise and constructive criticism included.
