Your competence as a writer is an in important part of this class. You cannot receive credit for this class if your writing does not reach acceptable standards. Just turning in all of your assignments and showing up for class is not enough to guarantee a passing grade. This class documents your writing proficiency as a teacher. However, you should not be frightened by these standards.
Most students can easily conquer any problems with mechanical skills in a few weeks.
This course will help you to improve those skills which could cause you problems as a professional in the future. Occasionally, we will take class time to answer questions about punctuation and sentence structure problems in your essays. You can also receive help at the Writing Center. If you have not visited the Writing Center at Wright State University, you owe yourself a trip to the basement of the library because our writing center is one of the best ones in the nation. How to Turn in Your Essays Each of the two times that you hand in a formal essay, you should turn in the final copy and all of the papers that you used during your writing process.
