ENG 111 — Research Strategies
ENG 111 is designed for students who wish to develop sophisticated skills and strategies for today’s research writing in academic disciplines. Students acquire a broad and in-depth proficiency in navigating the complexities of contemporary research assignments. This highly interactive course focuses on strategies for locating sources in library databases and on the web; evaluating sources; paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting diverse source material; synthesizing researched material into coherent paragraphs with student commentary; and documenting sources by using MLA-style parenthetical citations, signal phrases, and works cited. This course is an accompaniment to ENG 101: Research and Composition and therefore requires previous enrollment or co-enrollment in English 100 or 101.
