ENG 103 - A Modular Approach to the Writing Process


This course for college writers in various disciplines is divided into three units or modules, each of which earns one credit hour. Each unit runs for approximately one-third of a semester. Students may enroll in one, two, or all three modules and receive separate grades for each module they complete. The second and third units do not require the earlier unit(s) as prerequisites. Any or all of the units may be taken in conjunction with ENG 100  College Writing. The first unit, “Practical and Descriptive Grammar for College Writers,” gives students a thorough knowledge of traditional “prescriptive” grammar and introduces them to modern “descriptive” grammar. The second unit, “Editing, Revising, and Rewriting,” focuses on skills in proofreading, editing, revising, and rewriting, and also covers the use of computer programs for writing assistance. The third unit, “Research Skills Across the Disciplines,” studies the use of library resources (especially online and other computer databases), documentation and bibliography formats from a range of disciplines, and other techniques crucial to writing analytic research papers.
