The Writing Centre now offers appointments in a variety of formats: face-to-face, efeedback, or Zoom.
1. Face-to-face: The Writing Centre is once again open for face-to-face appointments. To ensure compliance with MoPH physical distancing measures, students are expected to bring either their own laptop computer OR two printed copies of the document they would like reviewed to the appointment. Please be advised that face-to-face appointments will be five minutes shorter than scheduled to allow for proper cleaning between appointments.
2. efeedback: You can book efeedback appointments directly in the instructor's schedule.
3. Zoom: This option allows you and the writing specialist to discuss your assignment in "real" time. About five minutes before your appointment start time, log in to WCOnline and open up your appointment. You will see a Zoom link beside "LOCATION" near the top of the pop-up box. Click on this link to go to the Zoom meeting room for your appointment. Make sure that your computer or phone camera and microphone are working and that you also have a good internet connection.
