Learning Outcomes:
1. Student Sources
2. 17 handouts of sample text
Instructional Procedures:
Ask for students to share what strategies they find most helpful, and
what parts of the revising process are difficult for them.
Group Work: Revising Strategies: 15 minutes
Ask for students to share what they discussed in their groups, call on
each group to present on what strategies and elements they found
successful/not successful in revising and within the text
Exit Slip: 3 minutes
Ask students to briefly jot down two things they learned about revision
before they leave class.
Method of Assessment:
Students will complete a short exit slip to demonstrate that they have picked
up at least two revision concepts from the lesson. Their knowledge will also
be assessed in the peer review workshops that follow this lesson, as they will
have the opportunity to apply some revision strategies in constructively
responding to the writing of their peers.
Reflection
The free write activity serves to encourage students to share their own
experience with writing and the writing process, a concept that bell hooks
champions in her essay Engaged Pedagogy, making the classroom an open
environment that welcomes student experiences to enrich academic
discussion.
