| WR 121 - Academic Composition |
|
This is the fundamental course for all writing students. It
emphasizes defining and developing a significant topic and
using principles of clear thinking to support an assertive
thesis. Students should understand their subject matter,
audience, purpose, and point-of-view, and demonstrate that
understanding through the organization and development of
essays. Students should analyze and evaluate other writers'
work to sharpen their critical abilities as readers and
writers. Because some students may go directly from WR 121
to WR 123, instructors will assign at least one
argumentative essay and introduce basic principles of
argumentation and research. Also available through Distance
Learning.
