Teaching students to write effectively within your discipline

at Liverpool Hope University
Workshop Aim
To bring the discipline expertise together with writing experts to explore
ways of helping students learn how to write effectively within their
discipline.
Workshop Objectives
1. To explore issues surrounding students’ engagement with writing
activities within the discipline.
2. To try and make explicit the ‘tacit knowledge’ used by academics in
their expectations of students’ writing.
3. To look at the processes through which students develop their
discipline writing skills.
4. To identify creative ways in which academics can support students
in developing their discipline writing skills.
This workshop is specifically for pairs from Institutions; an academic and
a writing specialist, to enable joint working and possible longer term
strategies to be envisaged.
