講義概要
/Course description
The primary objective of this course is to enable students to write effectively at the college level. Attention is given to matters of grammar and sentence construction, but the emphasis is on the composition of well-organized, coherent, and fully developed paragraphs and essays. By the end of the course, students should have developed the composition skills and writing strategies needed to deliver their thoughts in clear, sharply focused, logical academic prose. The underlying philosophy of the course is that writing students need to spend more time practicing writing than studying theories about writing. Thus, students are expected to write extensively.
