Email Prof. Jo Darden-Obi at jdarden@ccbcmd.edu. Please include as much information with your submission as you can, and be sure to include an accurate email address. Include a copy of the assignment you were given, or briefly describe it.

Think about your writing strengths and challenges and decide what kind of feedback you are interested in getting. Do you need help with a main idea or thesis sentence? Do you have questions about organization and development? Do you have questions about punctuation and grammar?

Within 48-72 hours, an OWL faculty member will respond to your submission at the email address you entered. Use the feedback as a guide for your rewrite.

Once you have used the OWL feedback to create a better draft of your assignment, you might want OWL to take a second look at what you’ve written. No problem! Send your “revised draft” to OWL and we will be happy to review it.
