WRIT1501 — Writing & Research
Students research issues in the health sciences through the approaches of critical inquiry, information literacy, and rhetorical awareness. Students analyze the context and credibility of sources and then select, evaluate, synthesize, and cite them in a research project that is accessible to a diversity of audiences. Written and oral feedback on student work is provided by instructors and peers to foster a supportive and collaborative learning community as students work through a recursive revision process. To strengthen metacognitive and communicative skills, students regularly reflect on their rhetorical choices.
