Becoming Better Writers - Diagnostic NOREDINK.com

Today we will take a short break from our Multi-Media endeavors.  I would like everyone to go to NoREDInk.com and take a short diagnostic quiz.  This site will allow you to work independently on becoming a better writer.  You will be able to learn, and practice, identifying and fixing grammatical mistakes in your writing.  It will also help you to become more articulate.

Please sign up for the appropriate class using the passwords below:
