Workshops

I personally like workshops, I think that it is beneficial to the writer to get feedback back from different perspectives. In my opinion in order for them to really help, we should take our time and not rush the workshop because it is "not your paper". I my previous writing classes, my professor divided the class in half group A and B. Then he would assign certain days for the groups to have their papers ready and post it on blackboard. Everyone who is included in that group will be responsible for reviewing/work shopping their peers writing. In class everyone is responsible for printing out the workshops for the week. and everyone in class will take time to talk about the students paper. In the end, everyone would pass the paper to the student being work-shopped with their notes. and the student would use that for revision. Our professor would also workshop the paper. I thought this was very helpful and everyone contributed to the workshop.
