SRJC English Department's Literature Offerings: Spring 2009 Literature Index: Reading & Composition ENGLISH 1A Barbara McClure Section: 6416 MW 10:30 am -12:30 pm Call Building 644 Petaluma Campus Research reveals that writers improve when they explore the connections between seeing and writing. When they can make clear observations, they develop clear thinking that leads to confident writing. In this class students will explore the connections between the written word and visual representation in today's society. We'll also study the English Department's Work of Literary Merit, the novel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: A Case Study in Critical Controversy by Mark Twain (the Bedford/St. Martin's 2nd edition). I emphasize writing as a process and have students revise a great deal of their work with in-class journals, one-on-one tutorials, group work, and a portfolio method of grading. Plan to read and write critically, research, be challenged, and engage in lively discussions. Please visit my homepage later this summer and find a class web page with more information about the class.
