About English 110B
English 110A meets Mondays,
Tuesdays, and Thursdays, 11-11:50, room E135 Olin
English 110 – also known as
Language and Writing – provides an entry into college-level writing and
academic discourse. The course encourages students to examine
writing closely, to figure out what makes a piece of writing effective (or not)
and how different aspects of writing work together (or don’t).
We’ll address conventions, rules, and preferences that masquerade as rules.
By making choices about an array of interrelated tools, students can devise a
writing style that is both effective in an academic setting and comfortably
individual.
