Write Place Information for Students
The Write Place offers support on any writing assignment and at any stage of the writing process. Consultants can help with:
- Brainstorming as soon as a student receives their assignment.
- Identifying and narrowing a topic.
- Developing a thesis.
- Generating and organizing ideas.
- Reviewing drafts.
- Assisting with revisions.
- Offering proofreading strategies.
Use the Write Place as often as you like!
- Most sessions last approximately 30 minutes.
- Consultants will read papers aloud, pausing periodically to discuss strengths and weaknesses in the writing.
- Since this is a consultation, students should be ready to share ideas and work collaboratively to ensure the best possible paper.
- At the end of the session, the consultant will review the main actions that students can take to further improve their paper; a small summary email will be sent at the end of each session.
