This course is designed to develop competency in the fundamentals and mechanics of correct English usage, including grammar, punctuation, capitalization, number style, sentence structure, and written expression. Through class exercises, short business documents, and an informal business report, students will gain practice and expertise in effective writing techniques. I do not give makeups on exams. I do not accept late assignments. It is your job to check due dates and seek help when you have questions.
All assignments are to be typed using correct business format, quality print and paper.
It is to your advantage that you know how to keyboard and can use a word processing program on a computer. The labs on campus are available for your use. I do not take regular attendance. It is your decision to come to class or not. However, you are responsible for finding out what you missed if you are absent.
