English 1121 continues the work we began in English 1101. We will work on developing critical reading and writing skills as we write about works of literature.

Assignments will require students to write in different styles such as summary, citation, exposition, comparison, analysis, and research. In addition, we will utilize a new digital platform called OpenLab, which will help us to engage with each other’s writing and world outside of the classroom.
