    Description
    This is a collegiate-level course in expository and argumentative writing, appropriate and effective use of language and vocabulary, close reading, critical thinking, research paper, information literacy, and documentation designed for non-native speakers of English with teaching strategies focused on cultural and linguistic sensitivity and competence. Students will review and apply academic writing skills including audience awareness and tone; grammatical structures; idea development; sentence, paragraph, essay, and research paper-level organization; and word choice. Because this course is for multilingual college-level writers, there is an emphasis on cultural and linguistic tools to enhance student success in the transfer-level English course.
