Scriptoria: Creative Writing
Issued by
Calvin University
Scriptoria is an intensive writing workshop collaboration between Calvin University, Aquinas College, and Cornerstone University. Earners of this badge attended the workshop and applied generative strategies and close revision techniques to their writing as well as the work of other writers. They revised their text to move toward a finished product, presented to other readers, and engaged with nuanced theological questions about purpose and meaning in a text.
