Wow! This semester is zooming by, and there is STILL so much to share about The Fourth! So far I’ve talked about the cool spots to hang out in up here. No doubt, the most popular space is the Stone Writing Center, but we also offer all kinds of instructional programs benefitting faculty, staff, and students.
SWC Experiences: Have you been part of an SWC Experience? They are Interactive sessions, customized for specific classes and individual assignments. Instructors can bring their students to the Fourth to learn about our services, see our space, and experience the SWC.
Workshop Series: Designed for writers across all disciplines, the SWC Writer Workshop Series provides students an opportunity to discuss challenging concepts in grammar, writing, and research. Our interactive sessions are 15-20 minutes in length with time for Q&A. Students are introduced to specific editing and revision strategies to avoid common grammatical errors and create stronger, more powerful writing. Students also learn how to successfully incorporate source information into their writing and avoid plagiarism. If you’re on my stretch of beach next week, Nov. 14 - 18, stop by The Fourth for Workshop Week. Here’s the list of topics:
- APA Documentation
- MLA 8th Edition Documentation
- Preparing Notes for the Essay Exam
- Tips for Combating Test Anxiety
- Study Apps: Quizlet & StudyBlue Flashcards
We’ve got you covered here on The Fourth. Come see us!
See you
next time the sun is up, the breeze is cool, and the waves roll into view. ‘Til
then, hang ten!
