- 提供反馈,帮助你使你的草稿更以读者为基础,并检查它是否符合作业的要求. 全球网赌十大网站希望你在结束你的会议时知道接下来需要做什么.
- To help you become an improved writer in some small way. 出于这个原因,你的充分参与和参与会议是必要的. 请不要期望导师会简单地告诉你要做什么改变.
一个典型的在线写作中心会议持续30分钟到一个小时,主要关注以下写作问题中的一两个, in order of priority:
First-Order Concerns
- Understanding an assignment
- 理解/处理老师对草稿或评分论文的评论
- Generating ideas on what to write about
- Stating a thesis or clarifying overall purpose
- Developing and/or organizing support paragraphs
- 提高连贯性(句子和段落之间的联系)
- Making sentences clear and easy to read the first time
Late-Order Concerns

为了确保你的治疗尽可能有帮助, please do the following prior to your appointment:
- Plan. 想想你想在训练中完成什么. 列出一个清单,列出到目前为止你对工作的疑问. 在这一阶段,你关注的是上面列出的哪些写作问题? 如果您正在处理一阶(大局)问题并有疑问, plan to focus on one or two of those in your session.
- 准备一份作业的副本和最新的草稿(或笔记) ready to share on your screen. 手头是否有任何可能对你的治疗有帮助的相关材料, including previous drafts, comments from peer review or instructor, notes from class, and sources that you will be using for the writing.
- 如果你对任务不清楚,这通常是有帮助的 ask your instructor for clarification before you seek our help. We can help you understand most assignments, 但有时全球网赌十大网站会鼓励你去找你的导师做进一步的解释, especially if we are not sure about what is required.
- Be prepared to schedule follow-up sessions. 一篇论文的一次会议可能不足以解决需要修改或编辑的每个领域. 在课程结束时,你应该对下一步要做什么有一个很好的想法. 给自己一些时间来完成草稿,然后把它带回来征求额外的反馈.
- Have paper on hand to 在会议期间跟踪修订和编辑需求. 当你独自工作时,这将对你有所帮助,也将帮助你决定是否安排另一个约会. You might want to record the session, or ask your tutor to record the session, so that you can go back to it.

How it Works
During your writing session, we will:
- 要求你们在课堂上以电子形式分享你们的作业和题目. 您可以使用Zoom的屏幕共享功能或上传文件附件到Zoom聊天区域;
- 和你谈谈你的任务和它的要求.e. 长度、受众、目的、内容要求、组织要求、评价标准;
- 寻求与你就如何将会议集中在一个或两个写作概念/目标上达成一致. 这可以通过询问你的写作计划来完成, 阅读几段作业,了解文章的哪些方面需要注意;
- Read sections of your draft with you. We might read a few paragraphs silently, 或者全球网赌十大网站可能会让你大声朗读(这是一个很好的方法,让你听到你在草稿中忽略的东西——逻辑上的空白。, for example, 或句子不清晰或部分之间的联系模糊).
