I’ve heard of lecture classes, seminars and labs, but not a writing workshop. What’s a writing workshop?
A writing workshop is a small class (capped here at 20 or 15) in which students share and evaluate each other’s work. While additional course texts may be assigned, the primary text in a workshop is student generated. Students both evaluate the work of peers (usually orally) and hear others evaluate the same text.
