WRITING PROJECT - Registration Now Open

WRITING PROJECT - REGISTRATION NOW OPEN

 

Now in its third year, the massively popular Writing Project will run again in Term 4.

It is an English language support scheme, established to help students improve their written work and therefore their grades and job prospects.

The Writing Project  http://www.writingproject.mmu.ac.uk/,  which starts week commencing 29th June, is a free course in how to write better English and is open to any MMU-enrolled student who would like to improve the way they write. This term, we are offering the course as a ‘Fast-track’ over five weeks, and some early evening classes.

It covers academic and non-academic areas and will focus mainly on style, punctuation, grammatical accuracy, organisation and how to paraphrase and summarise effectively.

It will run at Crewe and Manchester campuses during Term 4.

There is no credit attached to the course, and no formal assessment. However, students will do exercises in writing during the weekly or three-hour, face-to-face sessions and for homework (optional), and will be provided with plenty of feedback on their writing as the course progresses.

International students are welcome, but could also  use the existing ELSIS service, which is designed specifically for students whose first language is not English.

For more information, or to book a place on one of the courses, please visit our web site www.writingproject.mmu.ac.uk or contact writingproject@mmu.ac.uk in the Department of Languages and Information and Communication or phone 3931.
