Merrimack College Peer Tutor Training Tape.
DeCiccio, Albert C.; And Others
Noting that tutor training remains a persistent concern of writing center administrators, this paper contains the transcript of a tutor training videotape produced by the writing center at Merrimack College (Massachusetts) to augment the center's tutor training. The main parts of the tape transcript are titled (1) "Be Attentive"; (2) "You're a Tutor, not a Preacher"; (3) "Don't Judge or Grade"; and (4) "Avoid Discussing the Grade and Never Criticize the Professor." The paper notes that the tape illustrates the writing center's philosophy and tutoring style and that it may serve as a model for other writing centers. In addition, it provides the address for obtaining more information about the training tape. (JD)
