In the past, I have only done paper conferences with GBT V students.  However, I found that the exercise was sufficiently beneficial, that it is now an option for students in GBT III and IV as well.  If as student has scored good or better on all their papers the previous semester, they are eligible for this program.

In the paper conference program, students hand in their papers three weeks early.  Once their paper has been handed in, I go over it with them verbally to develop better unity of structure and profundity of theme.  Forcing students to discuss their material verbally often helps them to better understand the issue they are writing on and how the ideas in their papers tie together.  The conference last between 30 and 45 minutes and must be held at least one week before the paper is due in order to give time for revision.

Students must hand in papers two weeks before the regular due date.  All paper conference must be held at least one week before the paper is due. 

Please note that all students receive an evaluation of their papers, however, the paper conference is an additional opportunity for those who would like the further develop their ability to express their thoughts.
