Course Information and Required Materials
Course Name: Freshman Literature/Composition (LNG 311-12)
Course Description: This course integrates writing, grammar and usage, literature, speaking, listening, and critical thinking skills. It presents the writing process: planning, drafting, revising, editing, and proofing; the study of form in personal narratives, descriptions, and expository papers with emphasis on technical writing. It includes reading a variety of multicultural literature: short stories, novels, tales, poetry, mythology, drama, and nonfiction. It emphasizes oral and written response to literature, distinguishing characteristics of various genres, literary elements, and vocabulary study. There is a state-mandated End-of-Course test for this course.
Freshman English emphasizes independent reading and writing assignments. The success depends in large part on the active participation of each class member in class discussion. Obviously, if you are not prepared, you will not add a great deal to the discussion. All students are expected to read assignments before class and come to class prepared to give 100 percent.
Course Materials:
- One 3-ring binder with pockets (may be shared with another class)
- Loose-leaf paper
- One composition notebook
- Pens & pencils
- Colors (colored pencils, markers, or crayons)
