College English 1 is a general core English course that is mandatory for all students registering for the Associate Degree. This course aims to strengthen students’ narrative, descriptive, expository, and argumentative writing skills. The focus is on the writing process, such as planning (selecting a topic, writing effective thesis statements, finding a style suitable to a particular audience), organizing ideas in outlines, writing first drafts, editing, and rewriting to produce acceptable essays. Furthermore, argumentative writing skills will be reinforced through in-class debates requiring in-depth research techniques and APA formatting for presenting essays.
