Essay Workshop

From UVA Writing Center

Click here for the online interactive essay workshop.

The workshop is a way for students to respond to each other's work online. The workshop is completely functional, but is not quite complete; submitting the workshop will result in a completed workshop as a web page This will change - see below:

Instructions

• Get an essay from someone.
• Click on the essay workshop.
• Respond to the workshop questions by writing your answers in the boxes.
• When done, submit the workshop (the Click For Complete Workshop button).
• You will then see a complete workshop as a web page. You can either print this page out and return it to the person whose essay you workshopped, or copy and paste the document into a doc file (Word, Works, OpenOffice, whatever you use) and email the workshop back to the person.
  • This is the ideal way to get the workshop back to the original writer as soon as possible, so the writer can adjust the essay.
  • When the Assistant Director finally figures out the hack, the workshop will no longer come up as a web page, but as a pdf file which you can save and email. This will be much more efficient. What's wrong with that Assistant Director? Why can't he figure this stuff out? Someone should scold him.
