My name is Brittany Rogers and I am a Writing Specialist in the Office of Academic Support and Instructional Services. Better known as OASIS.</p> <p>We in OASIS are here for you throughout your program, to help you succeed. If you want to develop your writing, APA, or student success skills join me and other writing experts and peer mentors for an OASIS live session.</p> <p>Carnesha Ben: A resource that I highly recommend you check out are the Live Writing Accountability sessions, which are facilitated by a peer mentor. My name is Carnesha Ben, and I am one of the peer mentors for the Office of Academic Support and Instructional Services, better known as OASIS. During these sessions, you have the opportunity to work on any assignment or project that are due within the week. You also get the opportunity to connect with other Walden students. You also will share your academic goals that you will work towards during this session. And you will have an hour and a half to work on those assignments. And at the end, you and the other Walden students will discuss what you learned and what you hope to continue to work on after the session. This is a really great session and a wonderful opportunity to connect with other Walden students. So, we look forward to seeing you there.</p> <p>Brenda Hudson: Hi. I'm Brenda Hudson and I'm a core faculty member here in OASIS, where we offer a wide range of skill support services. Including tailored individualized feedback on your scholarly writing through our tuition-free SKIL workshops and courses. Our instructors are dedicated in providing feedback that will help you strengthen your skills and gain confidence in your writing, all in a supportive environment. We have a course for your every need, no matter where you are at in your scholarly journey. From undergraduate to masters, all the way through your capstone or dissertation. Talk to your advisor for more information or to sign up for our supportive courses, and I hope to see you in the classroom.</p> <p>Laurel Kriigel: Hi, my name is Laurel Kriigel, and I am one of the Librarians here at Walden. Are you feeling overwhelmed when searching the online Walden library? Do you ever wish you could just ask a Librarian a question or receive a personalized response? At the Walden Library you can email a Librarian through our Ask a Librarian email service. This service is open seven days a week, and is available to all students, as well as faculty and staff. You can email about finding articles or locating online journals, or anything Library related. You can expect a response from the Library within 24 hours. Reach out to a Walden Librarian today for help on your research journey.</p> <p>Stephanie Kramer: Hey there. I'm Stephanie Kramer and I'm an Academic Support Specialist in OASIS. Have you had a chance to explore the OASIS website yet? We have resources for using Grammarly, APA, templates, and success strategies. And if you are still stuck, use our Ask OASIS form, submit your question, and receive a response within 24 hours from an OASIS staff member. Check out the OASIS website to learn more about the services and resources available to you. We wish you success for the fall term and throughout your program. And remember, if you have questions, Ask OASIS.</p> </details> </p> <h3 class="modal-title">Welcome to the Fall 2024 term! </h3> <p> OASIS provides you with the support you need to succeed.
