English Composition I Corequisite

This course is a comprehensive English Composition course, covering all of the essential content about the writing process, rhetorical styles, and writing successfully for college, with extra support students may need to write at the college level. Every module includes “Writing Workshop” labs that walk students through targeted skills and provide additional practice in areas where students commonly struggle. Students cover the same learning outcomes and work on the same assignments found in the English Composition I course, but have the extra support they need.

This course is designed to accompany English Composition 1. The content from both courses is combined and delivered seamlessly as one course into your LMS.
