This is fundamentally an English course that is primarily concerned with preparing students to write on a college level and get used to the various writing assignments and styles that they’ll need to know to do well in higher education. As such, the class will be structured similarly to a college course to get students used to the format and workflow of a college course. Classes will include lectures, discussions, and in-class writing time, allowing students to have personal, in-depth feedback on their work. In addition to fundamental English and writing skills, the class will cover popular writing formats (APA, Chicago, MLA, and Turabian), how to use necessary resources for research (EBSCO, JSTOR, etc.), how to form a full research and writing plan around a prompt, how to write quickly and efficiently, general college course etiquette, and basic study disciplines.

This class is also offered as an A-G aligned Highschool Enlgish course, which has altered assignments to meet English course requirements for charter students. If you have any questions about the difference of whether the course will meet your charter’s A-G English requirements, please reach out to the instructor at bgcreech0@gmail.com.
