ENGL 1009 First Year Writing Seminar for Multilingual Students
Limited to 15 students; Satisfies core requirement for writing; Department Permission RequiredThis course, the first half of a year-long sequence of core English courses, is designed for students whose first language is something other than English. In this workshop, students will develop a portfolio of personal and academic writing and provide ongoing feedback to one another as part of a writing community. They will write and rewrite essays throughout the semester, discuss their works-in-progress, and receive feedback during individual conferences with the instructor. Students read a wide range of texts and consider the structure and organization of English rhetoric as they work to develop their own prose. Seats are prioritized for students who have been recommended for targeted language support. This course may be taken in place of ENGL 1010. Students place into this course based on BC's English Writing Assessment taken during the summer prior to freshmen year or in consultation with the director of the program, lynne.anderson@bc.edu
