111-3 Introduction to College Composition. (3-0)
(TCCNS = ENGL 1301) A prerequisite to English 112, the course introduces students to the diverse characteristics of writing for academic contexts. Students in English 111 write about ideas, in particular responding analytically and critically to written sources. The course helps students become familiar with academic audiences, situations, purposes, genres, and some primary conventions (style, arrangement) of those genres. Moreover, students work to develop their own composing processes, particularly for ways of inventing ideas, planning, and revising their texts. Course fee $5.
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.
