    Description
    Students will learn and practice reading and writing strategies to support their reading and writing development in writing-intensive online courses in both synchronous and asycnhronous settings (e.g. English 1A or English 5). Students will practice using collaborative and digital reading and writing tools available through learning management systems to further develop their reading and writing skills to succeed with the unique requirements of online reading and writing. Course topics include writer’s block, writing vulnerability, fundamental challenges of online learning, email use, online class interactions and engagement, and the similarities and differences between online and on-site writing intensive courses.
