ENG 110

Composition (3 Cr.)

Prerequisites: None

Description: George Leonard, a leading writer on education, wrote, “To learn is to change. Education is a process that changes the learner.” Writing is also a process that changes the writer. In this practical course in composition, students will spend time generating ideas for writing, sharing and critiquing their writing and ideas, revising their ideas, and learning more about themselves as a result. The course will emphasize using writing as a tool to explore and discover their thought processes, beliefs, and world concepts. Students will employ writing as a tool to develop critical thinking skills. In the process of organizing ideas and, subsequently, manifesting those ideas into various compositional styles and forms, students will become conscious of the concepts which have shaped and are continually shaping their personal realities.
