Note: You must be enrolled in the Advanced AACP

Total Workshop Time: 2 Hours

Pre-requisites: None

Description:

H.G. Wells said, "No passion in the world is equal to the passion to alter someone else's draft." Before you start changing someone else's writing, you must be able to back-up your choices.  In this session, you will learn how to move from proofreading to editing.  You'll begin to develop into a more effective editor by focusing on the appropriateness of writing for different situations and learning to work collaboratively with authors.

In this workshop, participants will gain:

• An increased ability to accurately proofread documents in various genres and styles
• An ability to work with writers in an editorial role

Facilitated by: Dr. Kristi Shackelford, Chief Communications Officer for Academic Affairs
