Promptastic: Driving Student Engagement with Effective Prompts

In this webinar, we will discuss how well-designed prompts can further course goals as well as student growth and engagement. We’ll particularly discuss how to use Revision Assistant prompts to develop critical thinking and to consider essential questions and other inquiry-based lessons and tasks. This webinar will also go over how smaller assignments can be a major part of students’ learning process, both in the traditional English/Composition classroom, and as part of Writing Across the Curriculum initiatives.
