• Writing and Rhetoric II on-campus

  (English 308J)  Lab-based. This course is primarily intended to improve writing skills -- but students do so while developing strategies for using computers in the writing process. Language proficiency from basic grammar to stylistic polish is emphasized as a platform for higher concerns of structure and insight. Computers are used as both content and tool. Assignments are drawn from a range of styles and forms: descriptive, personal essay, narrative, investigative, comparative, persuasive, analytical, and interpretive. Critiquing of papers examines style, structure, and logic as in any composition course..  (offered since 1995)

   

• Writing and Rhetoric I

  (on-campus Freshman Composition: English 151)  Lab-based. This course uses a familiar art to illuminate and improve writing skills.  Movies give students a colorful, energetic source of ideas and content to work with as they practice and experiment with clarity, structure, fluency, and rhetorical control.
