ENGC 1101 — College Writing
Writing is the foundation for success in any college course: it sharpens our argument skills, increases our precision with language, and helps us see the world differently. This course focuses on critical thinking and writing skills necessary in college and professional writing through text analyses and argument strategies. Students 1) study the writer’s purpose, audience, and rhetorical structure in a variety of genres and college-level texts, 2) organize and develop clear, thesis-driven logical arguments in various personal and academic essays, 3) find sources, synthesize, and document information in research-based academic essays, and 4) demonstrate proficient command of English writing conventions.
