ENG 111
College Writing II

Students produce sophisticated analyses and evaluations of texts and write essays that expand and refine their thinking about important ideas and issues. They analyze and evaluate ideas and information from a variety of sources, including electronic databases and networks, providing appropriate documentation. Students strengthen their writing and oral communication skills by learning to choose an appropriate rhetorical stance for different ideas, purposes, and audiences, and to assert an original thesis as a product of synthesizing ideas from multiple perspectives. At the end of this course, students will know how to write effective, analytical, college-level essays incorporating research and how to synthesize ideas from sources properly and effectively in their essays.
