How does the IUP Online Writing Center work?
The IUP Online Writing Center is a real-time interaction between you and your IUP Writing Center tutor. We use two technologies to make it work: SetMore Appointment Booking and Cisco WebEx. It’s easy to get started. Just schedule an appointment on our appointment calendar, and then meet with one of our tutors online.
What happens during an online tutoring session?
During the session, you will share your screen with the tutor and discuss your paper using your computer’s microphone. Your tutor will provide comments and suggestions, and you can revise your paper on the spot based on this feedback. The tutor can also provide Web resources to help you proofread your paper or format the references.
How do I schedule a session for the Online Writing Center?
To access the appointment calendar and download helpful instructions for how to use the Online Writing Center, please log in here with your IUP username and password: Log in to the Online Writing Center.
Please note: Online appointments are conducted no sooner than 24 hours after the time that you schedule. The SetMore calendar automatically closes appointments that are too close to the time of booking. If you need help sooner, stop by the Writing Center in 218 Eicher Hall. No appointment is needed for walk-ins.
