WRIT1301: University Writing

4 Credits

WRIT 1301 introduces students to writing processes, skills, and strategies that provide a strong foundation for future writing of all kinds—academic, professional, personal, civic. Core areas of focus include: rhetorical awareness; critical thinking; information literacy; multimodal composing; accessibility; and giving, getting, and applying feedback. The course requires regular peer-to-peer and peer-to-instructor interactions and scaffolded activities and assignments as students develop several projects over the course of the semester. Regular participation is critical in both modalities of the course—in-person/blended and async/online.
