    What does it mean to think critically? What are strategies for strengthening analysis? Have you been told you should dig deeper when writing a paper? This workshop will discuss ways to deepen critical thinking skills by moving beyond summarizing and paraphrasing so you can lengthen and
    develop your analysis. Appropriate for all levels.

    Understanding the 3-Part MLA Documentation System - Room 808A


    April 18

    This workshop covers the “why” and the “how” of the MLA documentation system and will break down each of its 3 elements so that you better understand how these parts work together to create a perfectly documented piece of writing. You are welcome to bring your own essays—and
    bring your questions! Our workshop is perfect for anyone in a writing class and anyone taking a course that requires documenting outside sources. Handouts will be available.
