100-3 Basic Writing. (3-2)
Provides students with instruction in the basics of acceptable writing, with special focus on preparing them to succeed in the writing demanded throughout the Tarleton State University freshman composition sequence. The course helps students address writing problems by work in such areas as the composing process, arrangement, cohesion, paragraphing, syntax, and use of evidence. The course also helps students (on an individual basis) with their particular problems in grammar, usage, punctuation, and spelling. A student must earn a grade of at least C in order to progress to ENGL 111. The course will not substitute for any other course and does not count for degree credit. Course fee $10.
In course descriptions, the digit following the course number is the number of semester credit hours. For example, ENGL 111-3 is a freshman level course worth 3 semester hours of credit. The numbers in parentheses following the course number (for example, 3-2) indicate the number of clock hours per week devoted to theory and practice, respectively. (WI) indicates that sections of this course will be offered as writing intensive.
