College students indicate that faculty comments on their papers can make a crucial difference in their improvement as writers. However, instructors often struggle to find the best way to provide feedback that their students will read, think about, and apply to improve the effectiveness of their writing. This workshop will focus on strategies for responding to student writing in order to help students acquire the writing and thinking skills that are central to the course, to the specific discipline, and to the broader goals of higher education.
