Hikari Leilani Miya

ENG 2012 will help you to think about what it means to be an English major with a creative writing focus. There's a lot to find wonder and fascination in! We will discuss the current practices and areas of inquiry, including the broadening of categories of interest to other forms of writing and media. This course also helps students to acquire skills that will be useful to them in their other courses. It will guide students through annotation and analysis, drafting, and revision, introduce the concepts of thesis and argumentation, and give students vocabulary for specialization. This course is intended to prepare students to be English majors, to show how English studies can be used both in college and their career choices and to expose them as well to the sheer pleasure of reading and writing.
