• Discussing Writing in Class

  • A workshop is a special kind of classroom discussion in which students discuss each other's work.
  • The advice given above on class discussions also applies when you and your peers are given time in class (or in a group study session, in the writing center, etc.) to workshop drafts of each other's papers.
  • A writing workshop is an excellent way to get suggestions from peers that help you improve your paper, since fellow students may be able to offer a perspective your instructor cannot.
  • Constructive, focused workshop critiquing also allows you to become a more critical reader and writer.

• Kanō School Painting in the Edo Period

  • The Kanō family itself produced a series of major artists over several generations, and a large number of unrelated artists trained in workshops of the school.

• German Woodcuts

  • The greatest artist of the German Renaissance, Albrecht Dürer, began his career as an apprentice to a leading workshop in Nuremberg, that of Michael Wolgemut, who had largely abandoned his painting to exploit the new medium.
