Some of you may be familiar with the Writing Center’s paper
review service—maybe you use it often, perhaps you’ve heard of us
but never made an appointment, or maybe this resource is news to you! Regardless
of where you fall along this spectrum, we’re here today to remind you of what
paper reviews can do for you—even during a term break!
Paper reviews are asynchronous one-on-one reviews of your
coursework with a Writing Center writing instructor. Here are the steps to get started!:
- Sign up for an account in myPASS (my Paper Appointment Scheduling System).
- Make an appointment up to two weeks in advance with a writing instructor.
- Attach your paper in myPASS by 5 a.m. EST the day of the appointment (you’ll even receive a reminder email two days before).
Once you’ve attached your paper, sit back and relax! A writing instructor will read through your work and return it with helpful, supportive comments the day of your appointment or the day after your appointment. Your writing instructor will provide you advice on patterns in your writing, use specific examples from your work, and share resources to assist you as you hone your academic writing skills on everything from synthesis to citing.
How can you use this service during a term break? You are
more than welcome to submit work that you’ve already turned in! Make an
appointment for during the break, and let the writing instructor know in your
appointment form that you’ve already submitted the paper and are looking for help
on observing patterns in your work and learning some tools to assist you. You
can even revise that old paper to see if you’re understanding the feedback and are
able to implement it—then submit it for another review.
Term breaks are also great times to reserve two appointments
per week to get feedback on revisions you're making to longer-term writing
projects, like a doctoral premise or prospectus.
Making a paper review appointment during a term break is a
great way to hone your writing skills in a less time-sensitive environment than
during course time, while still continuing to advance your work and keep your
mind engaged in academic writing.
The
Walden Writing Center provides information and assistance to students
with services like live chat, webinars, course visits, paper reviews,
podcasts, modules, and Writing Center webpages. Through these
services they provide students assistance with APA, scholarly writing,
and help students gain skills and confidence to enhance their scholarly
