每週 1-2 小時. Homework will reinforce the skills practiced in class by having students make progress on their final project based on the skills learned each week. For example, when students learn to do a reference list or works cited page, homework for the week will be to do so for their final project. Homework is required for all students and will be graded on completion, though feedback will be offered so students can improve their learning.評估
There will be a final take-home paper; however, students will be workshopping it throughout the semester as topics are covered in class. The paper is required for all students and is designed with the goal of giving students practice doing assignments very similar to what they may find in college courses.我們無法翻譯此文，請刷新頁面並再試一次。

Almost all college courses require writing of some kind, from personal reflections and literary analysis to scientific reports and journal articles. The goal of this class is to bridge the gap between high school writing expectations and collegiate level writing. During this class, students will learn the basics of writing for college as well as tips and tricks to succeed in undergraduate classes. We will cover how to figure out what your professor expects from a given assignment, how to budget time and avoid procrastination (one of the main downfalls of college students!), citations, and how to proofread or edit your own writing. Throughout the class, brief assignments will be given allowing students to practice and familiarize themselves with some of the activities they may come across at the collegiate level. The first part of each class will use a lecture format to cover a specific writing topic. The second half will use activities to reinforce learning and give space for questions or discussion. For a final project, students will choose from 3 or 4 assignment prompts similar to what they can expect to find in a collegiate level course and complete it from start to finish. Weekly homework will be assigned to breakdown this project and allow students to practice implementing skills covered in class in an actual assignment. Homework assigned each week is due before the start of class the following week. Below is a rough breakdown of what we will cover over the next 4 weeks.
