||
|
The prerequisite is a course in basic expository writing. In this upper-level, advanced composition course, students learn to write in many styles. They learn the major steps of the writing process: prewriting, drafting, peer review, and revision. Students identify audiences, generate topics, organize and edit information, and hone effective writing techniques. Students build a portfolio and learn to critique the work of others. Students completing this course will consider themselves as writers who have something worthwhile to write about; develop greater fluency in putting personal ideas on paper; develop and practice personal skills in observation and in thinking critically about experiences and observations; learn to give focus to writing papers; and explore different ways of writing parts of papers and learn approaches to editing, revising, and redrafting papers in the development process.
