課程概述

Sophomore Composition is a one-year foundation course that helps students advance their writing skills, and prepares them for college writing.

For this semester (second semester), we will focus on argumentative essays, before we turn to writing a short research paper.

This course will be conducted in both English and Mandarin. 

課程目標
This course aims to help students develop confidence and skills in using English at university level. By the end of this course, students will be able to:

- write English in a clear and coherent manner
- use an appropriate range of vocabulary and sentences in their writing
- organise ideas and structure a compelling argument
- produce essays on academic and general interest topics
- demonstrate the ability to revise and edit written work 
課程要求
Students are responsible for submitting their work on time.

However, I recognise that sometimes laptops/computers can go on strike. In these instances, please email your assignment directly to me 24 hours of the due date. Please note that in this case, your work will only be eligible for 80% of the maximum number of points.

Assignments submitted more than 24 hours after the due date will not be accepted, unless reasonable excuse is provided beforehand (for sick leave, official medical report should be presented). You will not receive a grade/ comments for this assignment.
