ENG101L tutors are embedded within the ENG 101 lectures, in addition to being responsible for running the tutorial writing labs. These tutorial writing labs provide guidance and support for students in completing their ENG 101 coursework. The tutorial writing labs incorporate discussions and reviews of ENG 101 readings and notes, writing workshops for ENG 101 essay assignments and review of basic academic writing skills as needed. English 101L introduces students to skills in college-level academic reading and writing. Emphasis is placed on critical analysis, argumentation and revision. Through the reading and writing processes, students develop and support ideas, refine arguments, evaluate and integrate appropriate sources, reflect on and implement feedback to revise and edit writing and develop an awareness of the variety of contexts, audiences and purposes of academic writing. Students develop an awareness of appropriate practices relating to intellectual honesty.
