5 KEY COMPONENTS OF WRITING WORKSHOP

 * ===Student choice about topic and genre===
 * ===Active revision (constant feedback between peers and teacher)===
 * ===Author's craft as a basis for instruction (through minilessons and conferences)===
 * ===Publication beyond classroom walls===
 * ===Broad visions of assessment that include both process and product===

// These components work in tandem with strategies like conferring, minilessons, running records, and writing portfolios. //
// These components carry over easily into adapting workshop for the 21st century -- a Digital Writing Workshop! (ref. Troy Hicks, 2009) //
