Composition I

Aloha!

This is an Asynchronou course that does not require students to meet at a certain time.

Summer 6-week English 100 course is fast paced, but certainly most doable (many have succeeded in the past).

Students will need the following qualities to be successful:

  1. Self starters who have an attention to detail.
  2. Accountable in staying current with all upcoming assignments.
  3. Able to follow instructions carefully.
  4. Pays careful attention to feedback and suggestions given to returned written assignments. Learns from mistakes and moves forward.
  5. Does the best possible work for each writing assignment and demonstrates improvement.

Important Course Notes:

  • No textbooks are required. All of the learning material will be on Laulima and must be read/watched/studied in order to succeed.
  • Four major writing assignments from 1100 to 1500 words each.
  • A first and final draft for the first three assignments. 
  • No first draft for the final writing assignment.
  • Weekly readings, discussion posts, impromptu writing, and quizzes. 
  • Peer reviews of a classmate’s essay.
  • No late work is accepted with the exception of a 48 hour grace period for final drafts that will result in a full grade reduction.
  • No make up work is given out. 
  • Assignments will be given out and due several days of the week during the six weeks. 

Mahalo!
