COM 222 - English Composition II (Honors


3 Credit Hours

The course offers students practice in and preparation for writing in upper-level classes with a focus on the rhetoric of scholarly inquiry. Students will read and discuss nonfiction texts about topics of interest to academic readers, particularly for the way they appeal to audiences and use evidence from research. Students will then apply their understanding of rhetorical strategies to create an extended inquiry-based project.

*The Honors section of English Composition II, in addition, provides an introduction to classic rhetoric in order to understand its connection to current academic writing. The class will select a focus theme for the semester to allow an in-depth investigation. The Honors section will require students to work collaboratively, in groups or as a whole class, to design and develop a culminating project.

Prerequisite(s): COM 121   or COM 122   with a grade of “C” or better
