If you participate in a poetry workshop, you can generally expect the following:

  1. You will be asked to explain your reasons for writing the poem: This helps others understand your intentions and themes, fostering deeper discussions about your work.

  2. A teacher will help you think about how to revise your poem: Instructors often provide guidance and strategies for effective revision, helping you refine your work.

  3. Other students will offer suggestions for improving your poem: Workshops are collaborative environments, and peer feedback is a key component. Other participants will share their thoughts and suggestions for enhancing your poem.

While it's possible that other students might provide feedback that could resemble revision or editing, it's typically not their role to revise the poem for you. The emphasis is on discussion and individual improvement. Overall, expect a supportive atmosphere focused on constructive criticism and creative growth.

a b c or d

Based on your options, I would say the following are most likely to happen in a poetry workshop:

B. You will be asked to explain your reasons for writing the poem.

C. A teacher will help you think about how to revise your poem.

D. Other students will offer suggestions for improving your poem.

So, if I had to choose one most representative of a typical experience in a poetry workshop, I would select D as it emphasizes the collaborative nature of such workshops. However, note that all three (B, C, and D) are generally expected aspects.

Option A ("Other students will revise or edit your poem for you") is less likely to be the case, as workshops typically focus on feedback rather than direct revision by peers.
