ENG1101, CompositionD314 Fall 2019 Toggle navigation

English 1101 is the introductory composition course. Its goal is to develop students’ reading, writing, and analytical skills as well as their discussion practices. By reflecting critically on literacy practices and engaging in their own, students are expected to become more nuanced practitioners of language. Students begin the course by writing literacy narratives that focus on such concerns as language diversity, orality, and language and technology. While academic discussion is important in the course, the primary emphasis is on students’ ability to negotiate multiple contexts and writing situations rather than becoming familiar with only academic language.
