ENGL 373 English Grammar for Everyone

Overview of basic grammatical concepts and structures, including punctuation and basic usage. Students will learn to recognize and correct grammatical errors in their writing and in everyday examples. They will also be able to explain why something is grammatically correct or incorrect, enabling them to impart their knowledge of grammar to others in their future professional workplace or classroom. While the course is designed with everyone in mind, the needs of future teachers are taken into special consideration. Additional topics will vary with instructor but might include differing approaches to grammar and style depending upon audience, purpose, and genre; the power of dynamics implicit in choosing one grammar over another; and the art of grammar - how writers use and abuse grammar artfully for expressive purposes.
