This supplemental course, taken in conjunction with English 1A, provides additional support for students in English 1A in academic essay writing and analytical reading. Emphasis is on writing process and the skills involved in reading multiple academic texts and developing and revising text-based, thesis-driven essays at the collegiate level.
IMPORTANT: This section of 1AS is a support course linked to 1A that offers additional class time and an assigned tutor. Both sections MUST be added together. This section is an in-person class with scheduled meetings at Ocean campus. This section requires the use of Canvas. Coursework is completed on Canvas using an internet enabled device. In this course, we will focus on reading and writing about competition, mindset, and success. We will examine the findings of research-based studies on competition and explore the ways competition can be harmful and the ways it can help us improve, grow, and reach our goals. This section is linked to the TRIO Writing Success Project. A tutor supports students in the class, and students can connect to additional coaching, advising, and other student support activities.
