ENG 100 Introduction to Academic Writing

Focuses on rhetorical awareness. In this course, students will explore the reading and writing practices of the academic community. Through primary and secondary research, and through guided writing practice, students will critically examine what these practices mean and consider how students' owen reading and writing practices fit into those of "the Academy." While additional texts may be assigned, writing produced by students in the class will serve as the principal texts of the course. Additional texts may include Graff & Birkenstein's They Say/I Say, Harris' Rewriting: How to do things with Texts, and Richard Lanham's Revising Prose. [W]
