ENG 153H - Critical Thinking and Writing


3 Credits
FALL

Foundations for the critical analysis of differing theories of knowledge will be examined. The process of argument analysis will be introduced and practiced. Students will be encouraged to think more in terms of identifying and generating questions than in absorbing facts. They will learn to identify conclusions and reasons given in support of those conclusions. Responses to various readings will be used as a way of practicing the skills students are developing. The semester project will be a documented research paper on a major thinker or writer. May substitute for ENG 131  or a humanities elective.
