Referring students to the Learning Hub: Best practices
- Encourage all students to take advantage of the opportunity to receive professional support and feedback on their work.
- When referring an individual student, keep the student’s advisor in the loop.
- Refrain from sharing a student’s work with the Learning Hub or copying the Learning Hub on an email to a student.
Request a class visit
A writing advisor will visit your classroom to introduce students to the Learning Hub’s resources, show students how to access our services and answer any questions.
Require a Learning Hub appointment
Requiring students to visit the Learning Hub as part of an assignment is a great way to help students connect with our advisors. Most students who make an initial appointment follow up to make additional appointments. Feel free to reach out to Michael Rymer to discuss.
Request an In-class Workshop
A staff member will facilitate one of the Learning Hub’s workshops in your class. Workshops range from 30-75 minutes. We are happy to adapt our workshops to your needs or collaborate to develop a workshop tailored to a particular assignment.
Consult with us about your writing assignments
