The guidelines for English 0701 are followed in this course, but in the ESL writing classroom there are cross-cultural implications both of what it means to do academic work and also what it means to share historical and cultural knowledge. Oral participation is encouraged as a way of developing fluency and enhancing comfort with participation in American academic settings. Classes are smaller than in English 0701, and teachers spend extended time in tutorial conferences with students. Note: English 0711 is designed to accommodate the needs of the ESL learner. Students placed in English 0711 must earn a final grade of C- or higher in order to be eligible to enroll in English 0802 or English 0812.
Students cannot receive credit for this course if they have successfully completed any of the following courses: English 0701, 1001, 1002, 1011, 1012, 0040, 0041, C050, C051, or R050.
