This month’s boot camp will feature a 30-minute webinar presented by Ashley Sanders, a Digital Scholarship Librarian at the Claremont Colleges Library, and PhD Candidate in History at Michigan State University. In this mini-webinar, Ashley will present ways to utilize visual tools to clarify your thoughts, make connections between important ideas, and improve your writing. Attending this mini-webinar will give you tips and tools to put the research on visual thinking to work for you in your writing. 

The boot camps each focus on a different aspect of the writing process, including goal-setting, developing good writing habits, the revision process, and accessing your creativity to enhance your academic writing. Read 6 Reasons to Participate in a Writing Boot Camp.
