ENG 102 Rhetoric II

Students further develop the composition and comprehension skills they gained in Rhetoric I. The course focuses on writing as a means of learning to reason effectively. In the process of writing several essays, including a minimum of 10 pages of research writing, students learn to analyze arguments and to construct a complex argument that interweaves their own ideas with those of their sources. Students also learn basic text-based and electronic research methods and proper documentation procedures. Lecture three hours per week.
