Still, we will complete the same number and type of class assignments as students in all other sections of EH 101. In addition, we will use a bulletin board for class discussion, and email to exchange papers with others registered for this class. You will have the same amount of work to complete as classes that meet in a more traditional classroom setting. Academic discourse is much more than simply being correct. Academic discourse involves an awareness of audience, a solid grasp of the subject, and confidence in your abilities as a writer.
Research shows that reading improves writing skills.
In addition, we will use research to broaden our knowledge base from which to write. We will explore, interpret, and apply new information. Therefore, you should be aware that it is impossible to write without doing some kind of research, even if it is re-searching your personal experiences for examples. Some of your writing will require much more formal research methods. You are responsible for ALL the information included on these pages.
