- With regard to no writing center and conferencing:
- I started here a year and a half ago--first person with
- any rhetoric and comp degree. Nope: no writing center.
- Quite a few other things we are doing without, too.
- But listening in on many of the conversations here
- have certainly given me ideas of direction. We do
- have a "learning center." I suspect that if I had
- time, I might be able to orient a portion of that
- toward a writing center. Hmmm.
-
- I appreciate the functions of conferencing--particularly
- in the writing center situation. Maybe a part of my
- challenge is to teach students how to do in my classroom
- what others do in writing centers.
