Blog 12 (elves.....propells?.......shelves?)that's about is....

Hmmm. i think i will go with the idea of Group peer sessions compared to single session. comparing and contrasting. As of today, I believe group sessions are beneficial at the beginning of the writing process(brain storming/find a focus/ organization) were as OOO(one-on-one) help with organization and reevaluation process.

With the one on one sessions i will specifically look for how the tutor interacts with he writer.
1. how far in the writing process is the writer?
2. what did the come to the writing center for?
3. what is their agenda for that day?

As for the group sessions i will do the same, but additionally how the students interact with each other. the tutor will be seen as the team leader only.
I will use body language and verbal cues to help drawn my conclusions.


At the end of each session(single and group), I would like to have a evaluation sheet filled out. maybe 3 examples form OOO and 3 from group sessions.

When it comes to group sessions, I have volunteers from the theatre department. but if we have enough students left over on Wednesday(hoping not) we could hold a mock group session.
Still trying to narrow it down a bit more. there were a few essays in our text book that i trust could help.
