Writing Resource
Center: Empire State College [pdf]
http://www.esc.edu/ESConline/Across_ESC/WritingResourceCenter.nsf/homepageForm?OpenForm
Effective learning strategies for becoming a better writer are much
appreciated resources on college campuses, and this site presents
a cornucopia of just this type of material. Created by Empire State
college faculty specifically for adult learners and faculty use,
the site provides access to a very fine annotated resource list.
The list contains documents from The Genesee Valley Center Writing
Program and is divided into sections such as Grammar & Punctuation,
ESL Resources, and Documenting Resources. The site contains over
150 specific resources that range from worksheets for faculty on
how to conduct informal writing activities to a primer on when to
write out numbers and when to use numerals in different types of
documents. [KMG]
