Computer-Based Writing Classes

Saturday, May 14th, 2005, 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM

Speaker: Bill Pellowe, Kinki University, Iizuka campus.

Pellowe describes his computer-based writing course, and gives practical advice on how teachers can implement similar courses with their own students. Pellowe's students do pre-writing tasks, solicit and share opinions, and respond to and discuss each other's writing. He discusses the effects on students' writing (both the processes and products) and some solutions to challenges faced with such a course.
