EXTRA CREDIT: Visit the Writing Center!

You can receive 5 points extra credit (that’s the equivalent of a blog post OR 5 missed class points!) AND get support towards your final Autoethnographic Essay if you make an appointment with the QC Writing Center. Here’s how to receive support and earn these points:

  1. Visit the Queens College Writing Center website and click “Login or Create an Appointment.” If you’ve never visited the site before, you’ll need to create a new user profile to select an appointment time that works for you.
  2. Make an appointment with a tutor BEFORE December 16th. Note that the Writing Center offers remote sessions on Friday and weekends! The Writing Center will also host drop-in evening hours on Thursday, December 12th.
  3. After your appointment, write a 250-300-word reflection. Some reflection points might be:
    • What did you bring to your writing center session? What did you leave with?
    • What stage were you at in your writing process? How did your tutor help move you forward?
    • Describe your session. What strategies did the tutor use to communicate with you or to encourage writing and thinking during your session?
    • How did the writing center space help or hinder your process?
  4. Post your reflection to your blog by December 17th to receive extra credit!
