Annotation -
The workshop format of the course:

During the creative writing workshop students (minimum B2 level) will be prompted through various writing assignments to generate ideas that can later be built upon to produce more fully realized text.

Assignments or tasks will be designed to make those lessons accessible and skills available to students.

Workshop emphasises the need to push the student´s own creative boundaries in order to demonstrate a strong and unique writing voice.

The aim is to transform the student´s imagination into a new written form, but also to broaden and sharpen reading skills so the student can practice skills used by writers to achieve certain literary effects.

Example of a few various assignments:

Explore who you are through various literary activities and experiments

Some examples of these activities:

- encourage descriptive writing by focusing on the sounds of words
- Require written response to peers´writing
- trying out different (short) genres written on various topics

Syllabus -
During the creative writing workshop, which takes place once a week, students will be asked to write different short genres: one topic and a related short text per seminar, plus immediate feedback. The tasks will be designed so that these lessons are accessible to the creative skills available to students at B2 level. In terms of time, the course is divided into 10 lessons and two parts: the first part consists of tasks related to subjective genres recording the personal reality of an individual, in the second part we wiíll focus more on training selected literary forms and the emphasis on the ability to objectively record reality will increase.
