Informal Writing

Informal Writing is usually used in the classroom to help you to learn through the process of consistent and varied forms of writing. Informal writing assignments often include: essays, book reviews, freewriting, journal writing, course evaluations, etc.

Informal Writing is used to engage all students, whether it is in a large or small class. In short form, such assignments often are not weighed very heavily in grading, and are meant as a way for you to explore ideas. You will often be asked to expand upon what you have already written in these shorter bits of informal writing for a larger essay at the end of the course (or several times during the course).
