Course Overview

Welcome to LA 100, "Basic Composition." The course website is jerz.setonhill.edu/teaching/LA100.

The official version of the syllabus is always the online version (though I will notify you in advance of any significant changes).

After introductions, we'll get started writing right away. I'll announce the topic in class.

Homework due Thursday:

  • In order to take the pretest during class on Thursday, purchase the MyCompLab access code. (It comes bundled with the SF Writer at the bookstore. )
  • In order to learn about college writing, to help you with the writing assignment due Thursday, and to prepare you to participate in a class discussion on Thursday, read chapters 1-2 in SF Writer.
  • Writing a polished paragraph, about 200 words, on the topic I'll introduce shortly.  The  revision is due the next time the class meets. In the future you will upload your submissions before class, but for now, just bring an electronic copy to class. (This is assignment P1, which we'll talk about shortly.)
