With input from class, we are establishing writing circles as a means of supporting everyone during the researching and writing process.  Writing circles will include peer review of proposals and drafts, conferences with Dr. Shutkin and Writing Circle Posts.


 

Writing Circle Assessment: After class or at the end of class, please reflect and blog (Writing Circle Posts) about the discussions that took place during your writing circles including descriptions of the conversations, critically significant commentary, emergent ideas, new readings and directions for further developing the essay and so forth. These blogposts will form the basis for my assessment of your writing circlesPeriodically, I will invite you to submit drafts or current versions of your essay if you should want my suggestions and guidance.

 


 

We will establish three groups:

 

During some class meetings, students will break into their writing groups to read and discuss BlogPosts, Timelines and research drafts, etc. as research is emerging.  (~25 minutes) 

 


 

(I am convinced that writing is a process that involves time alone in deep reflection and study but this must be followed by time for sharing and collaboration and support). 

 

I encourage all students to arrange at least one conference with me (Dr. Shutkin) to discuss your research paper.
