    Description
    Prerequisite: Completion of the Mission College Placement Process. In this course, students receive instruction in academic reading and writing, including writing processes, effective use of language, analytical thinking, and the foundations of academic research. This course includes embedded support. Students will enhance their critical reading, writing, and research skills by exploring and applying various techniques writers use in terms of approach, tone, word choice, organization, selection of support materials, etc. in order to impact their target audience and achieve their purpose. Taking this version of English Composition offers students more instructor-to-student interaction and student-to-student collaboration; more explanations, examples, guidance through assignment steps, opportunities for practice, and feedback; more help with research and citing; more opportunities to build and participate in community. English C1000E fulfills the English requirement for the associate degree. This course also satisfies the English requirement for baccalaureate degrees. This course was previously known as ENG 001AX.
