Introduction to Academic Writing introduces students not only to writing as process—prewriting, writing, and rewriting—but also to resources that aid students in writing successfully in an academic setting. Students will meet weekly as a class and individually with the instructor and/or peer tutor. They will also meet with library staff who will introduce students to the range of online resources available and how best to access them. Both the writing and speaking assignments are based on assignments in other courses, particularly the Human Ecology Core Course. Since writing is a maturation process, evaluations are based on the student’s growth as a writer, participation in class discussions and peer review sessions, and ability to meet deadlines. This course may be taken either for credit or non-credit, and prepares students to successfully take Writing Seminar I and II, Introduction to Journalism, Communicating Science, and any of the College Seminars, all of which meet the Writing Course degree requirement.
