IRW-0900A - The Academic Essay* (0)

Prerequisite: Placement
To help students to explore course topics in depth, many college professors assign multi-page essays that cite outside sources.  In this course, we will pick the topic and the outside sources for you to use.  You will choose your position on the topic, and we will help you craft an argumentative essay with sources. By the end of this 7-week course, you will have a portfolio of summary and response essays and at least one complete, college-level essay with sources.  Students who pass this course earn ENG and RDG equivalency and are ready to tackle ENG 1010 or ENG 1010T​.

List Course Outcomes (consistent for all sections)
CO1 - Apply the steps of the writing process in order to produce well-developed college-level texts that are clearly organized and in which errors do not interfere with fluent reading and understanding.

CO2 - Read sources critically and take notes in order to write summaries and responses.

CO3 - Integrate credible source material in their own texts to support claims.
