Course Number and Name

UWRT 1103: Writing and Inquiry in Academic Contexts I and II

Course Description

In Writing and Inquiry in Academic Contexts I and II (UWRT 1103), you will develop an extended inquiry project that integrates materials from varied sources and includes writing in multiple genres. You will write, revise, edit and reflect on your writing with the support of the teacher and peers. You will also immerse themselves in a conversation about a topic through reading, questioning, and process writing. Polished writing might assume the forms of presentations, reviews of research, essayistic arguments, or multi-media and web-based projects. You will learn to distinguish rhetorical contexts, practice different conventions, and develop positions in relation to research. You will also adopt digital technologies to network, compose, and/or critique and disseminate your work. Grades are derived primarily from portfolios that include work generated throughout the term.
