ENG 282 The Practice of Writing
The purpose of this course is to develop students' understanding of strategies of effective writing. It focuses on helping students learn to provide audience-and situation-based feedback on writing in ways that can help us grow as writers, readers, and critical thinkers. Through readings, activities, and assignments, we will discuss how to provide guidance, feedback, and encouragement and how to learn strategies for helping students from every discipline to: start and complete assignments, become more aware of strategies for improving their writing (and thinking about writing), and build their own confidence as writers. Students who complete this course will be able to tutor in Sacred Heart's Peer Writing Lab.
