6. Student Writing Center

7. Online Tutoring

8. Zak Basta on Student Writing Center • The student writing center is a great resource for students enrolled at SLCC. You can bring writing from any class and receive help on formatting, editing, adding material, etc. from the friendly tutors there. You can be at any stage of the writing process -- whether you are brainstorming ideas, you're on your first draft, second draft, or anywhere in between. Now, it's not simply a place to go and hand your paper over for fixing. The tutors there will work with a student on anything they feel they need assistance with, but they won't just do the work for you. The idea is to help students to become better, more educated writers -- developing skills necessary for advancement in school and life. It's a good idea to be prepared with an analysis or some basic knowledge of your own writing abilities so that the tutors can better understand what skills you need help developing. •         Generally, the writing center is for students who need help writing full papers, but they are also willing to help with basically anything that involves writing, e.g. short answers to questions, small paragraphs, et cetera. The tutors in the center can be current or former students, or even faculty members of the English department, so they have a pretty good understanding of the situation a given student can be in. It is a good idea to make an appointment, as well. You can call them and set up an appointment over the phone, or even just show up if you're in the area and sign their list for an appointment as soon as they can get to you. Not only is the Student Writing Center a great place to get in person writing assistance, but they also have online options that include live chat, facebook information, and video tutorials. In addition to that and the main center at the Redwood Rd. campus, there are centers at the South City, Jordan, and Miller campuses.

14. Internet Resources • We were introduced to many internet resources by a man named Nelson T. Emeric, who works at SLCC’s library. • He introduced us to SLCC online library website called Elie. • He went through how to log into Elie when you are not at school using your student number on your one card. • He also showed us two great databases that we can use when writing a research paper.
