●授業内容
We will briefly review the process of writing well-structured papers. We will read and discuss instruction on the content and format of common academic writing assignments. Participants will produce three papers for grading: an argumentative essay, a report based on library research, and a book review. Participants will read one another's writing and offer suggestions for improvement. In addition, participants will read extensively and complete timed writing for practice.
Together with the teacher, all students will discuss writing exercises they completed before class. Together, we will all develop a broader understanding of the writing process.
This seminar features some discussion of the writing process and the mechanics of paragraphs and sentences. The main focus, however, is on genres of academic writing often used in university or graduate school.
