Editing Creative writing (section)

===International students===

Creative writing may have an influence not only on native-speaking students but also on international students.<ref name=":2">{{Cite book |last=Anderson |first=Annesley |title=Tutors' Column: "Helping Students See Themselves as Writers: Creative Writing Exercises in the Writing Center" |date=2020 |pages=26–29}}</ref> Educators who advocate for creative writing say incorporating creative writing classes or exercises has the potential to develop students into better readers, analysts, and writers.<ref name=":2" /> These same people say creative writing can have similar effects on international students by acting as a platform for them to share their own heritage, experiences, and values.<ref name=":2" /> Scholar Youngjoo Yi conducted a case study that tested this idea over two years. Yi focused on an international student from Korea and examined how her creative writing class influenced her in-school and out-of-school writing. He concluded that taking the creative writing class made her a more confident writer—not only in English but also in other languages—and the projects done in her creative writing class encouraged her to express and connect her Korean heritage with her English writing.<ref name=":3">{{Cite journal |last=Yi |first=Youngjoo |date=2010-03-01 |title=Adolescent multilingual writers' transitions across in- and out-of-school writing contexts |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1060374309000496 |journal=Journal of Second Language Writing |volume=19 |issue=1 |pages=17–32 |doi=10.1016/j.jslw.2009.10.001 |issn=1060-3743|url-access=subscription }}</ref>
