Writing Coach Sessions As in The Syllabus - VB f22
Writing Coach Sessions As in The Syllabus - VB f22
Overview
Each section of FWIS 100 has an assigned writing coach. Coaches work individually with
students, and sometimes in small groups, to strengthen their skills in scholarly reading,
composition, and critical thinking, and to support their emerging academic literacy in general.
Coaches meet with each student five times throughout the semester and may also participate in
class activities, such as reading clinics or peer revision workshops.
Five percent of the total class grade is for the writing coach sessions. Each session is worth 1%
of your overall grade. If you are inattentive or disengaged or are not there for the entire session,
you will only get partial credit for the session.
