Introducing Your Students to the Writing Center
The Writing Center offers brief (about 10 minute) orientations designed to familiarize students with our services. Instructors can bring their classes to our main campus location or have a writing consultant come to their class (UNO campus only). We have found that many instructors have good luck scheduling the orientation for th ebeginning or end of a class period.
To request an orientation, please email unowritingcenter@unomaha.edu; include your preffered start/end time, at least two possible dates for the orientation. Please also indicate if you want to bring your class to ASH 150 or have a consultant visit your classroom (include you building/room #). Our staff will then follow-up to confirm your orientation.
Orientations begin the first day of the semester and are available through the last week of classes.
For instructors teaching online courses or unable to schedule an orientation during class time, please use the presentation below to help students understand how to use the Writing Center.
The presentation contains basic information about using the Writing Center and how we help writers. We encourage faculty to embed the link in Canvas or send it directly to students, especially for online courses.
