What we did in the Jan. 26 class:

We went directly to the lab and read the syllabus in class. The instructor showed students how to format their pages using MLA style.

In the latter third of the class, students did a writing sample. The writing sample will be used to identify student writing problems and at the end of the class, it will serve as a benchmark for how much the student has progressed.

Next week you will receive the reading schedule.
