Expression and Voice: Writing Skills I

This course provides students with opportunities to develop the writing skills necessary to present ideas and information in concise, well-organized paragraphs and essays. Within an active workshop environment, students develop an understanding of writing as a multi-stage process with an emphasis on developing prewriting, revising, and editing strategies. Through exposure to a range of creative writing activities, students are invited both to increase their appreciation of different writing styles and to develop their own unique writing voices. An exploration of essential grammar, spelling, and mechanics promotes independent proofreading skills; in addition, students extend their word power through a range of vocabulary building exercises.
