The purpose of Writing Studies is to equip students with rhetorical reading and writing skills necessary for college, the workplace, and beyond. Focusing on the negotiations between authors, texts, and media, students reflect on their own writing practices in context of course readings and independent research. Emphasis is on using instructor and peer feedback to develop effective writing habits, including pre-writing, drafting, revising, editing, proofreading, and documenting sources.
