Composition I

Catalog description

Composition I has four goals: improving students’ writing skills; learn- ing about language and writing, not just how to use them; developing critical-thinking skills; and reading more carefully and critically with a writer’s eye. Students work with multiple genres for multiple audiences and purposes; they practice strategies for invention, arrangement, and presentation; and they develop strategies of writing, revising, editing, and researching for writing in composition class and beyond.
