Description
The first course in the college composition sequence, helps students develop
critical reading skills and a clear and effective writing style appropriate for
academic contexts. The course familiarizes students with academic audiences,
situations, purposes, genres, and primary conventions of those genres, and
introduces students to incorporating sources into their writing. Students develop
planning, organizing, and revising skills. This course reviews standard American
grammar and usage in the context of student writing and fosters vocabulary
acquisition. Major assignments might include personal experience,
comparison/contrast, analytical and persuasive essays. Students must earn at least a 'C' to progress to ENGL 1302.
