Past workshops

Designing Writing Assignments powerpoint
This short heuristic exercise walks you through the essential steps of assignment design, from establishing goals to articulating writing criteria.

Feedback and Grading in Writing Flag Courses powerpoint
The new criteria for Writing Flag courses require students to revise in response to instructor feedback. How can you respond to student writing efficiently and effectively? This workshop will cover revision-oriented feedback as well as ways to reduce the amount of time you spend editing and correcting student error. We encourage you to bring your syllabus and writing assignments so you can work directly with your course materials.
