This is an introductory course that offers instruction in expository and argumentative writing, appropriate and effective use of language, close reading, cogent thinking, research strategies, information literacy, and documentation. With the help of additional instruction time and in-class tutors, this class is designed to develop reading strategies, conduct research, prewrite, draft, peer review, do just-in-time grammar instruction, and complete final drafts. Since ENG 2A and ENG 1A are equivalent courses, credit may be awarded for either ENG 2A or ENG 1A but not both. (HBCU, UC, CSU, C-ID ENGL 100)
