English for Non-Majors
This course will improve students’ aural, oral, reading and writing skills. Students will improve their ability to think critically in English and argue in English in a rhetorically effective way. Students will cultivate the skills of summary, analysis, observation, and research presentation in the expository essay format necessary for college-level work and beyond. The class will look at and interpret many kinds of writing, from journalism to cultural criticism to scientific reportage. When appropriate, course material will take a media ecology approach (i.e. it will look at the way in which media and culture coexist). The course will expand students’ vocabulary and practical knowledge of grammar and style.
The course will be entirely in English. |
