Introductory Writing (Credit: 3 hours)
Average equivalent
ECTS 5
Description
Introductory Writing students practice and acquire the fundamental writing principles: parts of speech;
sentence structure and sentence types, from simple to compound-complex; and punctuation. The
course project consists of four assigned essays, each being submitted incrementally; thus, students
receive individual feedback from instructors throughout the course. Additionally, the collateral writing
assignment teaches vital research skills; it requires students to develop a research question and thesis
statement. Next they gather notes from scholarly sources, organize their body of research, and write
an accurately documented report.
