How Can Faculty Improve the Writing Practice of Multilingual Students?

Facilitators: Ting Zhang, Rom Lewkowicz
Date: Thursday, March 19
Time: 12:30–2 p.m.
Location: 2420 Boylan Hall

From Writing Across the Curriculum. Brooklyn College's student body reflects the diversity and vibrancy of the borough. For the substantial proportion of students who are not native English speakers, writing assignments may seem like a greater challenge. But do they have to be? This workshop will provide faculty with ways to improve the writing practice and experience of multilingual students. You don't have to be an ESL teacher to help multilingual students! The workshop will explore various methods and strategies to better facilitate multilingual students' learning that would not require ESL expertise or taking time away from the course content.
