ANTH 7727 - Academic Writing Skills

Institution:

California Institute of Integral Studies

Subject:

Description:

Through close supervision and experimental techniques, students practice academic writing in English in a supportive and rigorous workshop environment. Students complete a substantial writing project related to their own scholarly work and receive feedback on their drafts over the course of the semester from the professor and fellow students. The course builds academic writing skills on four tracks: the writer (journals, strategies for creative expression, getting organized), the community (peer review and response), the language (words, sentences, paragraphs, style, voice), and the discipline (anthropology, gender studies, philosophy).
