ENGL 100B - Basic Academic Writing II

(2 cr) The second of a two-semester course sequence, ENGL 100B is designed to enhance critical thinking, reading, and writing skills as they support academic essay writing, particularly the argument essay. The two semesters stretch the same material as ENGL 101 in order to give students more time to master the course objectives. ENGL 100B emphasizes instruction on the criteria of evidence, style, sentence-level correctness, and MLA documentation. An emphasis is placed on the reading and writing processes, particularly the stage of revision. Students will be required to attend 100 minutes a week of lecture and 50 minutes a week of tutoring. ENGL 100A is a prerequisite to ENGL 100B. Completing both ENGL 100A and ENGL 100B serves as an alternate to ENGL 101 , and as such serves a prerequisite to ENGL 102 , 103 , or 104 .
