This is the first course in a three-term sequence of composition courses. English Composition is designed to develop students’ abilities to think, organize and express their ideas clearly and effectively in writing. This course incorporates reading, writing, discussion, collaboration, and critical thinking. Emphasis is placed on the various forms of expository writing such as description, narration, and argumentation. The class time is split between the classroom and online work, some in an adaptive learning environment. Pre-requisite(s): None. Co-requisite(s): ENG 101L is required for Pathways students only. 5 quarter hours

This corequisite (meaning taken at the same time) class is a structured workshop where students practice broadly useful skills, including information literacy, critical inquiry, research, creativity, process, communication, and language skills. In addition, students will explore their academic identity--who they are as a reader, writer, speaker, listener, and thinker. The majority of class time will be dedicated to targeted work on assignments. Students will apply the skills practiced in class to assignments from any of their courses. While the most obvious connection may be to the core English courses, the skills practiced in the corequisite lab can be applied to any college course, life outside college, and later careers. Pre-requisite(s): None. Co-requisite(s): ENG101. 0 quarter hours
