Description:	Our taster sessions give students the chance to develop and build on the knowledge and understanding of a particular writing form. It's also an opportunity for you to develop the independent practice skills crucial to a professional writer and an opportunity to develop writing industry contacts. All MA Professional Writing students spend time exploring different forms of writing before deciding which area they wish to specialise. Specialisms might be in the field of Business Writing, Features Writing, Non-Fiction, the Novel, Writing for Children or Scriptwriting. So this is your opportunity to explore and experiment with different areas of writing to see which one suits you best. Within these taster sessions, you will be invited to initiate, negotiate and complete an extended piece of writing to high standards. You will also develop a report that should demonstrate an enhanced understanding of the market context for your work as well as an appraisal of its strengths and weaknesses. Your development as a writer through these sessions will be supported by your peers. Your support will come in the form of online discussions, peer-to-peer feedback and by your own personal reflection on the feedback you receive on your work and your market research. To get the most from this experience, students are expected to participate in a schedule of peer-to-peer reviews. We have created assignment forums for you to post your work - this is where you receive feedback from your peers as well as critique the work of others. Please note that these taster sessions are taken from our part-time distance learning course. The audio lectures may contain instances of tutors speaking directly to our distance learning students.
