2018-2019 Undergraduate General Catalog

ENGL 112 Composition

This course will focus on skill building: from writing correctly worded sentences and taking effective notes to developing well-organized paragraphs, summaries, expository essays, and literary analyses. The writing process will involve generating ideas, framing concise thesis statements, analyzing information, prewriting, drafting, revising/editing/proofreading, and composing final projects. Students will learn the importance of including specific details as support for thesis statements and will work to eliminate grammatical errors through written practice.
