Course requirements may vary among teachers, but most require exercise work, several highly revised paragraphs, and one final essay. All ENG 1004 students submit a portfolio of their work to demonstrate their readiness for ENG 1005. This course provides intensive practice in the writing and revising of expository essays.
Most instructors require three or four papers, each addressing a different genre.
The last paper may incorporate library research documented in correct MLA style.
