| INTRODUCTION TO COLLEGE COMPOSITION- (2:00p-3:15p) A prerequisite to English 1123, the course introduces students to the diverse characteristics of writing for academic contexts. Students in English 1113 write about ideas, in particular responding analytically and critically to written sources. The course helps students become familiar with academic audiences, situations, purposes, genres, and some primary conventions (style, arrangement) of those genres. Moreover, students work to develop their own composing processes, particularly for ways of inventing ideas, planning, and revising their texts.
