Description: How can we better support multilingual students as writers across disciplines? This workshop explores assessment and feedback practices that recognize multilingualism as a normal and valuable asset of academic work. We will emphasize prioritizing content over “unaccented” English and offering timely, constructive feedback that values linguistic diversity and supports students’ growth as confident writers. Sponsored by FACET, International Initiatives, and the Writing Center.
