English 101 Section B19. Writing As Discovery
This section of English 101 will explore some of the many ways writing functions as a means of discovery—of who we are, what we think and know, and what we have to say to others. Within a workshop format, the challenges of writing effectively in college will be addressed through frequent one-to-one consultation with the instructor regarding individual students’ work in progress. Assignments are designed to provide ample opportunity for independent and creative exploration while enabling students to gain confidence in a variety of writing modes, both formal and informal, by means of a process involving idea generation, drafting, revision, and editing.
