ENC 3310 - Advanced Exposition: Critical Thinking and Guided Research


3 credit(s)
Prerequisite(s): Prior to enrolling in any upper level course (course number beginning with a 3 or 4), students must complete the following courses with a grade of “C” or better: ENC 1101 English Composition I, ENC 1102 English Composition II, and three semester hours of college level mathematics; or permission from the appropriate academic dean.
This course prepares students for the work required of professional and public writers.  The course includes advanced practice in expository writing, in-depth analysis of rhetorical techniques and modes of discourse, and review of grammar and syntax.  Students will evaluate a variety of written texts and write their own full-length critical research paper on a career-related topic of their choice.  This 3,000-word paper will involve extensive research, under the guidance of the instructor, and be the basis for a formal class presentation. The course will be comprised of a blend of instructional methodologies, including both face-to-face and distance education components.
