Honors College Writing

ENGLWRIT112H: Honors College Writing provides students the opportunity to: 

• Build awareness of the intersections of writing, language, and power.
• Develop effective composing processes to use in future writing contexts.
• Create projects which demonstrate student agency in the process of making composing choices.
• Explicitly include and sustain culturally and linguistically diverse approaches to writing.
• Implement strategies to develop complex ideas while discovering new ones in the composing process.
• Explore connections between personal, creative, and critical composition practices.
• Take part in composing projects which cross conventional borders of argumentation, language use, and genre. 

 By writing, reading, and engaging in class discussions, honors students will be able to: 

• Write for more than one purpose and audience in more than one mode, media, or genre.
• Use the writing process to substantially revise your thinking, in which your understanding of an idea evolves or extends.
• Synthesize ideas and claims from personal, academic, public, or professional texts.
• Analyze the intention, meaning, or effect of personal, academic, public, or professional texts.
• Make effective rhetorical choices during revision.
• Use citation practices that represent diverse sources of information and acknowledgement of intellectual property.
• Show in written reflection which writing strategies you will apply beyond the course.
