SPELL CHECK WON'T SAVE YOU!

SPELL CHECK WON’T SAVE YOU!
AH 111

We all want to communicate clearly and effectively in writing and in speech, but we can’t rely on Microsoft Word to be our copy editor. This course covers many common grammatical and usage errors that lead to comical, embarrassing and sometimes disastrous results. The two sessions will address punctuation, capitalization, run-on sentences, subject-verb agreement, pronouns, prepositions, tautological phrases, dangling participles, misplaced modifiers, frequently confused words, homophones, eggcorns, and more. Expect: grammar trivia, puns and fun. Don’t expect: a nap.

Presenter/Developer: Steve Weinstein,
B.A. in English Literature, University of Pittsburgh, is the author of the soon-to-be published book, The Write Thing: Improving Your Grammar for Business and Pleasure.
