Writing at UCD: Supporting each other by Mandy Proctor https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8 Made with ♥ by your UWP 7Y instructors. We are rooting for you this year!! en-us 2021-12-03 19:24:14 UTC 2021-12-07 20:01:10 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f970.png INSTRUCTIONS MandyProctor https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1928031054 Edward and Paz argue "writing requires talking to friends, asking help from colleagues, finding answers and ideas in others' writings, and indulging in those practices. We embrace collaboration over isolation, and it is precisely this model of writing that we argue education should promote to writers and students everywhere."

Talk with your breakout room groupmates about ways you can create opportunities for collaboration after this quarter when you are writing for other purposes/courses. How can student writers create networks of support outside of the classroom that will provide opportunities to talk about their writing with other writers? What can you do to find the kind of collaborative support that Edward and Paz argue that writing requires?

Write a post with your group listing ways you can create networks of support.

Trying to be friends with people in your classes will help you because you are going to be in a class with them for 10 weeks. If you need other support there are great resources for writing like the writing lab can help you talk about your writing. We can find that working on getting to know people in our classes helps us create relationships to later help get support

- Join study groups with people who share the same classes
- Communicating with friends through social media or online
- Meeting people in study rooms at the dorms, library, etc.
- Attend tutoring for writing]]> 2021-12-07 19:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934432829 Group #15: Kylie, Riya, Jack, Alyssa 8010727 https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934433402 Work with peers and have them give their feedback.
Tutor, professors, faculty members to help.
Become comfortable with giving feedback to other writers. 
Keep in touch with previous classmates.

Finding other writers and creating group chats with each other to help collaborate and work together on writing assignments

4. Going to an online writing forum and seeking help online 

5. Seeking help from tutors and/or the UC Davis writing Center. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:00 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934435343 Group 11: Bre, Daniel, Riley, and Sam bgsanders https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934435793 As a group we discussed many opportunities that we have on campus to collaborate with others, outside of this class. Our roommates and friends are a convenient source for reviewing our work and providing feedback. Forming study groups with peers is another easily accessible way to collaborate. Beyond that, there is the tutoring center with writing assistants and clubs/ organizations on campus (e.g. poetry club and Aggie Fiction Writing Workshop). Professors and TAs can also be a good resource to reach out to.  ]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:14 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934435793 Group 12: Ryan N, Gun W, Tianqi S, Natalie V rmdnguyen https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934435999 -Find Study Groups in all classes
-Talk to your professors and TAs to look for guidance or resources
-Talk to your roommates or people in the nearby study lounge
-Go to the library, plenty of people there
A way student writers create a network of support outside of classes is to simply reach out. College is a special experience and we are paying a ridiculous amount for it. Reach out to people around you. Struggling? Find or create a study group of people. Everyone is looking for the same type of thing, someone just needs to start it. We have access to an endless supply to resources, it just depends if we want to tap into them. The way Edward and Paz argue can be done by simply doing research on the internet or going to the library. The support you can find in your classes or online.]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934435999 Group 10: Diego M, Natasha R, Jacky W. diemendoza https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436159 When looking for opportunities for collaborations there are many different options. Online options include things such as facebook groups, groupchats with this class and future classes, online communities or forums. Other resources include school opportunities such as tutoring, writing labs and workshops, clubs and even reaching out to professors for advice and collaboration.]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:25 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436159 Group 3: Taelyn Harding, Mandy Li, Nicholas Anderson, and Lisset Hernandez-Pacheco tfharding https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436380 There are many ways that students can connect with each other for support with writing, including:
-Use internet and technology to connect with peers and discuss your writing.
-Use the writing support center, make appointments with tutors
-ask for help and feedback from friends, similar to peer review feedback activities done in class.
-Go to office hours to talk about your work]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436380 Group 5: Jessie, Jade, Sunny, Yesica kijnguyen https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436570 Ways we can create opportunities to collaborate after this quarter are social media platforms such as discord servers, phone numbers, instagram, and zoom to call friends. These are networks that students can use to connect with others when they want to ask for reviews, editing, and concerns. There are also tutoring offered at UC Davis, dorms where we can easily connect with one another, and academic advisors who can guide us towards the right path when we seek for help. We can also go to our teachers, and office hours to bring up any questions. These all include collaboration, not isolation which is what Edward and Paz argue about, because it helps with the continued development of our writing skills when we seek inspiration from others instead of dealing it alone.

The discord server is widely known and easily accessible for many students, and since some classes use this app already, most students already know how to navigate it. The server is user friendly and is an easy way to communicate, ask questions, or just collaborate with your peers. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436669 Group 6: Ryan Wade, Emmanuel Ortiz, Joaquin Jackman, Arabella Chan emjortiz https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436813 A method that students can find collaborative support is firstly from receiving feedback from either their roommate or friends. Another great resources would be the AATC Writing Support Center. But also, finding students in the same courses and forming a study group.]]> 2021-12-07 19:55:49 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934436813 Opportunities for Collaboration ramhern https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439090 Members: Cassandra, Adam, Jessie, and Ramses

Creating opportunities for collaboration after this quarter may be a lot easier than it seems. Nowadays, students/writers have the ability to exchange information with each other (social media, phone numbers, e-mail, etc.). Students also have the power to create their own communities through technology. Webpages and Applications such as 'Discord' provide easy access to individuals to communicate online through the use of messaging, audio calls, and, even, video calls. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:56:56 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439090 Group #4: Liam, Lilian, Shuxian, Aurora loswenson https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439818 One of the best ways to connect with others and collaborate in writing is to reach out to other writers around you. You can reach out to people in the same course as you and form study groups or offer to review their work and offer them feedback. You can reach out to campus provided help such as the Student Writing Center to collaborate. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439818 Group 8 etperez1 https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439858 As this quarter come to an end one skill that we have practiced heavily was collaboration. As we all have our own different paths going further in our education there are many ways that we can create opportunities for collaboration. One particular way is trying to connect with peers in different classes. This will allow us to share different ideas and perspectives on numerous topics of discussion. Another way we can improve use collaboration. going into the future is by using the resources provided to us. At UC Davis there are many opportunities to meet with others that can help in our academic success such as writing support center, study groups, workshops, office hours, etc. When emerging ourselves with all these different opportunities we will be able to improve our collaborative knowledge. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:57:24 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934439858 Denyse Mejia, Cory Pham, Vy Phan dmejia47 https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934440188 - using social media platforms to create group where you can communicate with peers such as discord to be able to review others work

Peer feedback is important because not only do you get feedback but you are also networking and getting to know others. Another way would be going to the office hours of the professors because you can get feedback from the instructor but also meet other peers from the course to create study groups. Having, creating or joining a study group would also be a way to create a network of support because you will be able to collaborate with other peers as well. There is also the option of going to advising with staff or students for writing at different places on campus.]]> 2021-12-07 19:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934442492 Group 13: Crystal Zang, Jessica Vargas, Audrey Weinstein, Nolan T ctzang https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934443618 Student writers can create networks of support outside of the classroom by gathering study groups. Group members can be friends or classmates, anyone who is interested in communicating writings and offering each other suggestions. 

The tutoring center on campus is another way of creating networks of support. Student writers can get help with any writing problems such as revision and advice on how to create a better draft. ]]> 2021-12-07 19:59:32 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934443618 Group 18: Kaelyn, Karina, Jasmine, Hugo kanerey https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934443869 Many times, writing can seem lonely, but it's important to remember that we are not alone and there are several ways to find opportunities for collaboration. You can do this by asking peers from this writing course if they would like to revise your future work to help you out, the new people you met today or even close friends. You can also create study groups that focus on writing. Furthermore, you can also make friends in future classes that can help you with writing or ask around your dorm if anyone would like to help you out if you live on campus. You can also always reach out to professors and TAs, get writing support from the AATC writing center and attend tutoring for support.]]> 2021-12-07 19:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/MandyProctor/62umrmvo5u1f89t8/wish/1934443869
