Developing The MHHS Writing Center

Why a Writing Center?

"I could not be the primary editor for my many student writers if I wanted them to produce a good deal of revised writing during the course of the school year."  Richard Kent

 

 

 

 

More about what a writing center can be,,,

Writing centers, writing labs, writing workshops, or writer's centers are places where writers talk with fellow writers about their work in an effort to discover a thesis, overcome procrastination, develop ideas, create an outline, evaluate a draft, or revise a draft.  Writing center staff members support, tutor and confer with writers in an effort to encourage and motivate.  In the most effective writing center, student writers feel a ease as they create and revise lab reports, applications, essays. projects, digital stories, poems, cover letters, resumes, short stories, songs, research papers, personal letters, etc.
