Composition I

Catalog description

Like its foundational sequence course, EN 101 emphasizes critical thinking and writing improvement. Students exercise analytical habits of mind, rhetorical strategy, and thinking/writing process to approach writing situations, to publish an analytical essay. The course stresses growth as thinkers and writers through self-evaluation, learning community exchanges, and instructor feedback to improve and gain confidence as writers. Strategies and techniques learned in this English sequence course will prepare students for EN 102 and also for writing in other coursework, workplaces, and society.
