All too often conferences are rushed, one-sided conversations that focus on what the students needs to do to get a better grade. This workshop presents research-based guidelines to prepare for, conduct, and ensure conferencing is effective in a way that helps ESL students become better writers and take charge of their writing and the writing process. This session was inspired by and based off writing feedback during student-teacher conferences. ||  || January 22 || 1:00-2:00 || DH117 || Catherine Mund (x4781) || **FERPA 2.0** ** HCC Express #7381 ** What is FERPA?

The in-person session will include a fun, interactive discussion of practical situations that you will encounter. || [|please view this online module prior to the session] || January 22 || 1:30-3:00 || MH256 || Luda Bard
