Institution:

Texas Lutheran University

Subject:

Description:

This course teaches academic reading and writing skills, which are crucial to students' success and intellectual growth in all their courses. Students will learn to read literary and scholarly texts critically and carefully and to produce analytical arguments about those texts. They will refine their existing writing skills and address any problems they might have with standard English usage. Each section of COMP 131 pursues a different topic; recent offerings have focused on the problem of homelessness, images of scientific creativity, critical reading of fairy tales, and the recent crises in business ethics. All sections, however, do the same amount of work.
