So, you've just written an amazing story; you're done, right? NO! Are things like spelling mistakes, repetition, and a lack of clarity that big of a deal? YES! In this course students will learn how to edit and proofread their writing and why it is crucial to present their work in an organized, understandable, and grammatically accurate manner. They will be given the tools to become proficient at rereading fiction for technique and content. In our first class, we will define editing...
Students will become better equipped to edit and proofread their creative writing, and discuss the merits of these applications.
I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults within the educational and mental health systems. While in graduate school, I was a part-time college instructor which ignited my passion for teaching. I then became a mental health therapist, working in residential facilities as well as in the community. For the past six years, I have taught students online, which has been rewarding and challenging in ways that continue to inspire me. Along with being a teacher, I am also a writer. I have had two short stories published, and I continue to regularly submit material. For three years, I had a blog that included my short stories, reviews, and opinions on various issues. Other examples of my writing experience consist of curriculums for an independent living program, program descriptions, numerous website articles, as well as online advertisements. I enjoy sharing my passion for writing with students and hearing about what inspires them. I strive to provide a supportive atmosphere for my students, allowing them to harness and express their creativity in ways unique to them. Throughout my educational and professional careers, I have implemented various tools in my own life to create and maintain a system of learning, organization, and balance. After successes and failures alike, I now believe the knowledge of "how to learn" is a skill that serves us well after we graduate from school. I enjoy sharing these valuable skills with students who may discover a new way to be productive, feel confident as they plan for their future, and apply them to different parts of their lives for the rest of their lives.
A handout will be provided during the first two classes. Students may want to take notes as well.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
