    Description
    This course develops critical thinking, reading, and writing skills through the study of logical reasoning, the analysis of literary texts and the generation of written arguments. Literature will provide subject matter for approximately 6,000-8,000 words of argumentative essays; however, the course will emphasize the abilities to analyze, criticize and reason inductively and deductively.
