ENGL101X

​English 101X focuses on familiarizing students with the kind of writing they will have to do in college, broadly referred to as academic writing. Inquiry, rhetoric, and conversation are the three major concerns of English 101X. Students learn how to use writing to make sense of their inquiries, consider alternate perspectives, engage audiences, and craft persuasive arguments they believe their audiences should consider. The ultimate work of the course is for students to learn how to participate thoughtfully, critically, and persuasively in academic conversations. Students not only gain the knowledge and skills to form arguments and persuade audiences, but they also learn to inquire, listen, reconsider, and reflect on an issue of their choice and their evolving positions within that issue.
