Objectives |
This is a successive and comprehensive stage of writing after students have been trained to create cohesive and comprehensible units of essay paragraphs. This course is intended to help student readers to develop skills in the reading and evaluation of analytic and descriptive texts, and other texts with different styles. Students will be exposed to experience diverse pre and post-reading exercises to highlight aspects of good writing, such as structure, rhetorical patterns and other features. Based on this skill, when students explore the rules and methods of essay-writing, they should be able to improve the effectiveness in presenting knowledge and viewpoints. This goal can be reached through the integration of language skills: reading, speaking, and writing and classroom activities such as discussion presentation, etc. |

Syllabus |
This is a one-year writing course. The course focuses on the ABC of writing: 1) awareness of writing on the part of an author and that of an audience and of writing purposefully so as to inform, persuade or take stand by arguing rationally; 2) basics of sentence structures, viz. avoidance of fragments and run-on sentences; and 3) concepts of paragraph development, what thesis statement is and what topic sentence is so as to build a solid foundation for the writing of longer essays that employ various patterns of rhetorical expositions that form the backbone of the second semester’s writing class. |
