3.Students will craft original, persuasive arguments.


 
課程要求
Requirements:
Participation: Students are required to come to class prepared to discuss the assigned reading and other students’ writing and actively participate in class discussion and writing workshops. The participation grade will be based on peer evaluation.

Oral Report: Each student will do a 15-minute oral report on a chapter of Style. When students enrolled outnumber chapters available, there will be joint presentations, which will have to last 20 minutes. Schedule of the oral report will be set up in the first class.

Summaries: Students will write two summaries. These are short essays (250 words each) presenting main ideas found in articles of the students’ own choice, without personal commentary.
*All paper assignments will go through in-class writing workshops and be revised by the author before final submission for grading.

Article Reviews: Students will write two article reviews (300 words each) to evaluate arguments presented in articles of their own choice.

Arguments: Students will write two rhetorical essays, each presenting a persuasive argument in about 750 words.

Book Review: Towards the end of the course, students will write a book review of 500 words. This final work of the semester should demonstrate that students have integrated the skills acquired and will account for 15% of the final grade. There will be an oral presentation (5%) for students to present the final version of their book reviews.
