Improving Students’ Writing Skills with Packback

Faculty Spotlight: Vicki Villone shares how asking questions on Packback is improving students’ writing skills

Vicki Villone teaches an online English course at Harrisburg Area Community College. Since implementing Packback, she’s excited by the improvement she’s seen in her students’ writing skills, which she attributes to the practice of writing questions on Packback.

“The questions that they are asking [on Packback] are really helping their writing. They’re helping their writing process. They’re helping them to think about writing and researching and I believe that they are learning more in the process.”
