The required resource for this workshop is the Editing & Revising Teacher’s Guide, available in print or digitally with a license to the Hub. The digital Teacher’s Guide also contains online, interactive student pages. Interactive student pages require a learning system platform, like Google Classroom, to assign pages to students. These pages are digital only. To have printed student pages, you need to purchase our printed Student Books in packages of 25.
