基礎寫作（IEW SSS 1A 級）FLEX-第二學期

There will be NO LIVE CLASSES because this course is a FLEX class. Students MUST complete part 1 of this course to enroll. 

The lessons in this course will teach IEW Structure and Style in writing.  Structure teaches students how to organize their thoughts before they write.  Style teaches students how to engage the reader with literary devices called dress-ups and decorations in IEW. 

At the end of this class, students will have a portfolio of creative writing and report writing work -- as well as a new, useful skillset of structural and stylistic techniques. 

Learner and instructor interaction will occur as follows:

1. At the beginning of each week, the teacher will post a lesson highlight video. This will help the students understand what to expect and what to pay close attention to during their IEW video lesson.
2. Students will watch the IEW video lesson and complete the homework. Students will turn in their work and receive feedback from the instructor on every assignment submitted. 
3. Each week, the instructor will post a series of questions or challenges in the classroom that learners can respond to. One example question might include asking students to think of all the strong verbs they could use to replace "ate" in the sentence, "The hungry boy, who had missed breakfast, ate the pizza when the waiter placed it on the table." Students will interact with other students by working together to analyze, edit, and complete these challenges.  
4. Weekly, students will be encouraged to interact with their classmates by sharing their work for instructor feedback (as a private message) and peer feedback.

Students who take this online FLEX class with Mrs. Brown benefit in three ways:

2. Students benefit from accountability for composition assignments.
3. Perhaps most importantly, students receive timely and helpful feedback on every written composition they submit.
