Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper describes a research project conducted with international doctoral students documenting student and faculty members’ experiences in a writing workshop. The purpose of this study was to understand the complexities associated with international students’ academic writing competencies and develop a supportive culture as they pursue their education in the US. Participation in the writing workshop aided students in progressing through the four stages of Burch’s learning model. The findings suggest that, intensive writing experiences improve writing abilities, perceptions of writing, and knowledge of when to pursue writing assistance. In addition, the workshop supported the researchers in gaining insight into their international students’ experiences leading towards improved pedagogy for this student population.
