RCR 701 Writing for Academic Purposes

This course is designed to introduce students to the foundational elements of academic writing within the discipline of education. The work is sequenced from basic practice to the professional application of elements of clear, concise, coherent writing. Using the process of pre-writing, writing, and revising strategies, students examine purpose, audience, organization, style, flow, and the proper use of grammatical conventions. Students apply these skills to a cogent argument about an idea focused on a problem of practice within the field, writing about data, assessing and using sources, and identifying and evaluating a solution.
