Writing for Research, Analysis, and Reflection

While WRIT 125 covers the basics of academic essay writing, WRIT 225 will allow students to work on more complex types of assessments in academic writing. A basic understanding of essay-writing is therefore required and expected at the same time. 

WRIT 225 invites students to expand their skills and try their hand at a variety of writing forms organized into four modules: Critical Thinking and Writing, Research Skills, Reflecting Writing Skills, and Presentation Skills. Within each module, Students will be able to choose their individual assessments, which include but are not limited to critical reviews, lab reports, and reflective essays.  Learning will also be facilitated through peer feedback and discussion activities.
