Methodologies vary according to the individual instructor. Maximum class size is currently set at 20 students, although smaller classes are anticipated. Since EN 111 allows for some variation in content and methodology according to the particular instructor, additional course descriptors may be given by the instructor of the section in which the student enrolls. Specific methods of evaluation and the weight given to various elements of the course are spelled out in the syllabus each instructor prepares for particular section of the course, and they are as well explained orally to the students at the beginning of each semester. Texts change periodically, and some instructors designate their own texts.
Supplemental materials vary from instructor to instructor.
