Internship with the Walt Disney Company, Orlando Florida

Level 2 English course (required) where we discuss how Discourse Communities and Genre convey messages to an audience. We will read William Shakespeare’s Sonnets, the poems of Emily Dickinson, watch Outlander clips, and read Guy de Maupassant’s “Hautot and His Son.” We will also read two non-fictional texts (a war diary and a UN speech). The goal is to see who you are as writers, to improve your writing, to explore research questions, and to repurpose that research for modern or current causes or contexts.

English 1101Co is a writing- intensive course designed to strengthen your composition skills. Writing a variety of essays, in addition to a research paper, will help you develop skills such as building an argument, adopting your writing for different needs and situations, interpreting and responding to a text, incorporating secondary source material effectively, and mastering the mechanics of quoting, citing, and documenting sources. The poems, short stories, essays, and newspaper articles we will read together are focused on New York City and urban issues. We will be reading pieces both for their inherent literary value and also as models of composition that you may employ in your writing assignments. Reflecting on your own experiences alongside these texts will ensure active discussion regarding communities, public space, urban art forms, education, class, race, gender, crime, gentrification, and other topics of debate.
