NOTE: THERE ARE NO WITHDRAWALS OR INCOMPLETES FOR COMPOSITION I AND II. THIS IS A
COLLEGE POLICY.


                                  ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENT

Class attendance and participation are expected. For absences less than three and failure to
participate in class, I will deduct points from your class work grade (see last item in list above).
For absences in excess of three, please read below.



                                Attendance and Participation
    For English Composition I SWW you are required to attend a writing workshop one
    time a week. This is an important part of your English Composition class requirement
    and failure to attend will result in failing the course. Also, you are required to meet
    with our in class tutor once a week outside the classroom. If you are dismissed from
    tutoring because you do not regularly attend and/or have more than two
    unexcused absences, you will not be able to pass this course.
    Absences from class, workshop and tutoring (including those excused) in excess
    of three (yes, again, that means among the class, workshop, and tutoring) will
    result in an AUTOMATIC FAILING GRADE. So, for example, if you miss one
    class and three tutoring sessions-or you miss two classes, one workshop session, and
    one tutoring session-you are then eligible to fail this course.
    Being late three times will count as one absence.




                                            Procedures

   1. Students are expected to engage in all levels of the writing process: prewriting, drafting,
      revising, editing, and proofreading. Students will receive ample time to work on their
      writing and will receive feedback from both the instructor and their peers.

   2. Essays 1-3 may be revised once after the initial grade has been recorded. In most cases,
      editing and proofreading alone will not count as a revision. Revision is more substantial,
      sometimes requiring the addition of text, deletion of text, and reorganization of text. If a
      student chooses to revise an essay, the revision must be submitted within one week
      of the day it is returned to him or her. The original grade will be averaged in with the
      second grade; however, there is no guarantee that the revision will receive a higher grade.




                                                 3

   3. Students receive a grade and feedback on each assignment before the next assignment is
      due so that students can learn from the comments. Students are reminded that they can
      come visit me in my office hours to discuss their writing at any time during the semester.

                                           Portfolios

   Students will be required to submit portfolios of their work in order to receive passing
   grades in the course. Keep all of your work. Do not throw anything you write away.
   You will need to assess all of your work for possible inclusion in the portfolio. To be
   eligible to submit portfolios, students must demonstrate competency in grammar and usage
   through an editing exercise and must be passing the course with a D or better.


                              Composition I: Portfolio Checklist

      Assessment sheet (student, instructor, and reader’s name; oral component met).
      Table of contents.
      A self-assessment of your writing regarding this semester; this may be formatted as a
       letter to the reader of the portfolio (also called: cover or reflective letter).
      Diagnostic essay (not graded; clean copy).
      Two essays written and revised outside of class with all drafts; attach an unmarked clean
       copy on top of the drafts. This must include one argument or analysis essay with
       MLA documentation and Works Cited page.
      Midterm exam or second-timed writing (not graded; clean copy).
      Common final exam (not graded; clean copy).


   Portfolios will be graded as passing if they are deemed a level 4 on the placement and
   proficiency scale. Portfolios that do not contain the required work will not be graded.
   Students who do not fulfill the portfolio requirement will receive a grade of R (Repeat) for
   the course, which does not affect the student’s Grade Point Average or financial aid. The
   student must repeat the course and successfully complete all assignments before a grade will
   be determined.

                               Statement on Academic Integrity

“Students are expected to maintain the highest standards of honesty in their academic work.
Cheating, forgery, and plagiarism are serious offences, and students found guilty of any form of
academic dishonesty are subject to disciplinary action” (Faculty Handbook 33).

Plagiarism is the unacknowledged (intentionally or unintentionally) use of summary, paraphrase,
direct quotation, language, statistics, or ideas from other sources, including Internet sources.
You must cite according to the Modern Language Association (MLA) format found in Writing:
A Manual for the Digital Age, Brief Second Edition. If you plagiarize all or part of a writing
assignment, you will be reported to the Department of English Chair and/or the Academic Dean.

                         Statement on Americans with Disabilities Act

“Students with disabilities are entitled to the right to accommodation under Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Ace and ADA of 1990. ADA students are responsible for self-identifying to the
Disability Resource Center, who will inform me of your needs of accommodation related to the
structure of the course” (Faculty Handbook 30).

Course Description Training in critical reading, the process of composing, academic forms of writing, and computer literacy. Movement from expressive to expository writing. Papers assigned to develop particular writing techniques. A first-semester English course. Objectives By semester’s end, students will demonstrate the ability to: 1
  • 2. 2  To develop the ability to write in different rhetorical situations, i.e., for different purposes, occasions, and audiences.  To develop the ability to write effectively in a variety of rhetorical modes.  To develop the ability to write well-developed, well-organized, and clear paragraphs and essays.  To enhance the thinking necessary in all college courses, i.e., reflecting, observing, explaining, comparing, summarizing, synthesizing, analyzing, and interpreting.  To approach writing as a process, i.e., planning, shaping, drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading.  To increase the ability to write grammatically and coherently.  To critique one’s own writing and the writing of others.  To evaluate courses of information using criteria such as currency, authority, objectivity, accuracy, specificity, and relevance.  To use information ethically and legally (i.e., to avoid plagiarism).  To develop oral presentation skills.  To develop computer information literacy.  To demonstrate basic knowledge of library skills. Course Overview: Composition I develops students’ abilities to write grammatical and coherent sentences and to develop ideas fully an in an organized fashion. The course will develop students’ abilities to produce distinctive pieces of writing based upon individual thinking and experience. It also will stress and lead students through the composing process as they develop better understanding of their own writing processes . . . (Composition Program Handbook 11). Writing Requirements and Grade Distribution Four essays (3-4 pages each) 75% 2 in-class essays; 10% Journals; quizzes; oral reports; homework including Ha Jin Collection 15% Required Final Portfolio (P/F) Class Participation & Library Assignment (P/F)* *Class attendance and participation is expected. Failures in these areas will result in a deduction to your overall course grade of at least half a grade.  2
  • 3. 3 NOTE: THERE ARE NO WITHDRAWALS OR INCOMPLETES FOR COMPOSITION I AND II. THIS IS A COLLEGE POLICY. ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENT Class attendance and participation are expected. For absences less than three and failure to participate in class, I will deduct points from your class work grade (see last item in list above). For absences in excess of three, please read below. Attendance and Participation For English Composition I SWW you are required to attend a writing workshop one time a week. This is an important part of your English Composition class requirement and failure to attend will result in failing the course. Also, you are required to meet with our in class tutor once a week outside the classroom. If you are dismissed from tutoring because you do not regularly attend and/or have more than two unexcused absences, you will not be able to pass this course. Absences from class, workshop and tutoring (including those excused) in excess of three (yes, again, that means among the class, workshop, and tutoring) will result in an AUTOMATIC FAILING GRADE. So, for example, if you miss one class and three tutoring sessions-or you miss two classes, one workshop session, and one tutoring session-you are then eligible to fail this course. Being late three times will count as one absence. Procedures 1. Students are expected to engage in all levels of the writing process: prewriting, drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading. Students will receive ample time to work on their writing and will receive feedback from both the instructor and their peers. 2. Essays 1-3 may be revised once after the initial grade has been recorded. In most cases, editing and proofreading alone will not count as a revision. Revision is more substantial, sometimes requiring the addition of text, deletion of text, and reorganization of text. If a student chooses to revise an essay, the revision must be submitted within one week of the day it is returned to him or her. The original grade will be averaged in with the second grade; however, there is no guarantee that the revision will receive a higher grade. 3
  • 4. 4 3. Students receive a grade and feedback on each assignment before the next assignment is due so that students can learn from the comments. Students are reminded that they can come visit me in my office hours to discuss their writing at any time during the semester. Portfolios Students will be required to submit portfolios of their work in order to receive passing grades in the course. Keep all of your work. Do not throw anything you write away. You will need to assess all of your work for possible inclusion in the portfolio. To be eligible to submit portfolios, students must demonstrate competency in grammar and usage through an editing exercise and must be passing the course with a D or better. Composition I: Portfolio Checklist  Assessment sheet (student, instructor, and reader’s name; oral component met).  Table of contents.  A self-assessment of your writing regarding this semester; this may be formatted as a letter to the reader of the portfolio (also called: cover or reflective letter).  Diagnostic essay (not graded; clean copy).  Two essays written and revised outside of class with all drafts; attach an unmarked clean copy on top of the drafts. This must include one argument or analysis essay with MLA documentation and Works Cited page.  Midterm exam or second-timed writing (not graded; clean copy).  Common final exam (not graded; clean copy). Portfolios will be graded as passing if they are deemed a level 4 on the placement and proficiency scale. Portfolios that do not contain the required work will not be graded. Students who do not fulfill the portfolio requirement will receive a grade of R (Repeat) for the course, which does not affect the student’s Grade Point Average or financial aid. The student must repeat the course and successfully complete all assignments before a grade will be determined. Statement on Academic Integrity “Students are expected to maintain the highest standards of honesty in their academic work. Cheating, forgery, and plagiarism are serious offences, and students found guilty of any form of academic dishonesty are subject to disciplinary action” (Faculty Handbook 33). Plagiarism is the unacknowledged (intentionally or unintentionally) use of summary, paraphrase, direct quotation, language, statistics, or ideas from other sources, including Internet sources. You must cite according to the Modern Language Association (MLA) format found in Writing: A Manual for the Digital Age, Brief Second Edition. If you plagiarize all or part of a writing assignment, you will be reported to the Department of English Chair and/or the Academic Dean. 4
  • 5. 5 Statement on Americans with Disabilities Act “Students with disabilities are entitled to the right to accommodation under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Ace and ADA of 1990. ADA students are responsible for self-identifying to the Disability Resource Center, who will inform me of your needs of accommodation related to the structure of the course” (Faculty Handbook 30).
