Description:

This is the third in a three-level series of courses for students whose dominant language is not English. The course is a prerequisite for EN 110 and is designed to prepare students for other mainstream courses as well. Students study aspects of American culture from a variety of sources and write essays in response to these sources. They learn techniques for locating and self-correcting grammar, spelling, punctuation and usage errors in their compositions. The course could also help students who are preparing to take the TWE (Test of Written English) and TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). Students are introduced to internet and library research strategies as well as styles of source documentation. This course satisfies general elective or Liberal Arts elective requirements, but it does not substitute for EN 110 - College Composition. It is restricted to non-native speakers of English. EN 132 replaces EN 032, EN 051 and EN 105. Prerequisites: both EN 031 and EN 041 or appropriate placement test scores. F/S (C, N)
