Session Detail


The Art of Writing: Teaching Authors Craft
Cohort 4: July 6 - July 17




Participants will learn strategies for using art and mentor texts (reading/writing connection) to teach author's craft.

Important Session Information:


**Please note, this learning experience is a virtual event and will not be hosted at a physical site.**

THIS IS A SELF-PACED COURSE THAT BEGINS ON JULY 6, 2020 AND ENDS ON JULY 17, 2020.

Skilled authors use tools and techniques to craft their masterpieces.  If we want students to be better writers, then we must teach them the “art” of writing by exposing them to a variety of author’s craft moves and providing time for them to analyze and experiment with those tools. In this virtual asynchronous session, participants will clearly define author’s craft, identify different types of craft, and learn strategies for using art and the reading/writing connection to teach the art of writing. After registering, participants will receive an email with a link to the Google site that houses all of the course materials. 

**This course will be offered 5 times in the form of two-week long cohorts.  Participants will need to sign up for only one of the 5 Cohorts, and will need to complete the assignments for the course within the two week period in order to receive their 6 hrs CPE credit.Participants should give the instructor 2-3 business days to reward credit for their submissions.

  1. Members of the Region 10 Regional Cooperative Services receive free registration.
