Solving Predictable Workshop Problems - Part 2 of 2: A Digging Deeper Dialogue
Manage episode 344736358 series 3376268
In this episode, we tackle several predictable problems we've seen students deal with in a writing workshop. We discuss how to work with students who claim they have nothing to write about, how to deal with stories that go on and on (and on), the "I'm done" syndrome, guiding students with perfectionist tendencies, managing a variety of behavior issues, and helping students who don't use conventions.
