Blog #11: Writing Center Internship Reflection and Presentation Preparation

Due Friday, March 29th, by 11am (or soon after your WC Internship) Responses to your Peer Group due the following Sunday by midnight
Reminder: We present to Georgia on Monday--be prepared!!

Two parts to this blog:


Part 1: Reflection on Writing Center Internship (or submit a piece of writing that you have revised and discuss your revisions)


Writing Center Internship: Please describe what you did for your Internship this week: the writing you saw, the students you worked with, the concepts you discussed, etc. As before, you'll need to reflect on your experiences and how they will help you revise your writing. Below are the guiding questions to help you reflect on what you learn:


  • What you learned as a tutor
  • What you notice about other students’ writing
  • What you notice about the writing of multilingual writers
  • What you notice about your own writing
  • The language of tutors and writers
  • Insights about language, academic writing, or tutoring
  • How you helped other writers
  • How other writers helped you

Part 2: Community Partner Draft Annotations

For this space, please paste your project (or at least the text you have written for this project).  Below write a paragraph outlining what you will say during your presentation:

Consider these points (but don't think of these items as a list!):
*Audience
*Purpose
*Goals for project (what action you hope people will take)
*Ways Second Chance Animal could use your materials
*Format rationale
*Design choices
*Revisions of Second Chance Animal's original text (and why)
*Questions for Georgia
*What you learned from the project

This is a brief presentation (about 2-3 minutes in length), but please prepare for it.  Practice presenting your project out loud several times before Monday.  Be sure to have print copies and electronic copies for Monday (post your final draft to Angel).




Response: For your response, you should help your partners clarify or expand on their project--especially so you all know what your group members are saying.
