Animation of Writing Process

Check out this amazing 13 minute video that literally shows you how to improve your writing with clear and logical steps.

After watching the video and having a brief discussion each of you is going to write a single paragraph consisting of precisely five sentences: one intro or topic sentence, three sentences that support your central idea, and one concluding sentence.

Mid-Semester Test

Students must complete all the modules on their Learning Path to be eligible to take the "early release" test.

This test will be offered in the week of October 22-26.

Student Progress

It was discouraging to see that so few of you have spent more than a few minutes on your Learning Path program.

It's obvious to me that you need firm assignments. For next week's class, finish all of the modules on your Reading tab. Please note: This will take time, concentration, and effort.
