The process of workshops are beneficial. It provides opportunity for feedback from not one but multiple sources. During the beginning of the semester I was unsure and skeptical of our workshop days .. until we had our first one (not to mention the double absence we get for not attending). The process of exchanging my paper with another student or students who, like myself, seek opinions from peers their own age provided comfort. The workshop days make me willing to share my work with someone else who can provide valuable feedback that is put to use to enhance my work - not just anyone, but someone who is in the same position as myself.
Also, I enjoy our workshop days because I am able to read the work of other students before they turn their final piece in. In courses I have taken in the past I have been unable to read the work of classmates because the process of exchanging was unavailable, unless requested ... and who randomly requests to read your work, right? It also allows you to see the imigination and writing styles of others.
Workshopping is a very valuable and helpful opportunity that you have provided us with.
