RPW 111 - Rhetoric and Writing II


3 credit(s)
Emphasizes close reading, analytical writing, and critical thinking that are fundamental for many upper-level courses. Building upon the abilities introduced in RPW 110 , critical thinking is taught as students learn to examine multiple perspectives, to analyze an argument, to find and evaluate sources (print and digital), and to present a persuasive viewpoint. As students assert their informed perspectives, they learn to engage with the words and ideas of others without compromising their academic integrity. A primary goal of the course is for students to learn to participate fully in scholarly discourses and debates. Designated sections of this course require additional work in basic skills. This course may not be elected on a Pass/No Pass basis.
Prerequisite(s): RPW 110 .
Laboratory fee.
