Honors Writing Scholars Lab

This lab gives participants the following opportunities:

• to help provide instruction for, and to mentor, first-year students in the Research, Reasoning, Writing and Advocacy ("RRWA") program;
• to reflect on their experiences;
• to receive critiques of their work; and
• to improve their work based on the reflection and critiques.

The lab follows and builds upon the fall semester Honors Writing Scholars Seminar. Using the training they will have received in the Seminar, the HWS students will assist a section of the first-year RRWA students inside and outside the classroom. First, they will attend RRWA classes and work closely with the RRWA professor. They also will provide instruction in at least two hands-on, practice-oriented class sessions. Second, they will assist the RRWA students in less formal settings outside of the class, mentoring those students and helping them develop their research and writing skills.
