Overview: College Writing Lab is a companion course to College Writing. Degree-seeking students of Christian Leaders College should enroll in both classes at the same time. In this lab, students write and submit essays and research papers that apply the principles taught in College Writing. Together, these companion courses teach college-level essay writing and research writing rooted in critical and analytical reading.
Course Objectives:
- Acquire strategies to read efficiently and identify a text's important ideas
- Activate intellectual skills to understand and critically evaluate the assertions of a text
- Develop basic writing strategies (research, planning, summarizing, organizing, avoiding plagiarism, referencing, and proofreading)
- Become proficient in key elements of essay writing (argument and discussion, cause and effect, definitions, style)
- Pursue economy of language (precision, clarity, conciseness, academic vocabulary, word choice)
- Learn to structure and develop an academic research paper (thesis development, evaluating sources, organizing, revising, and APA documentation)
Assignments:
- Write and upload two essays. You should complete the first eight English 121 College Writing units before uploading your essays here.

The forum is a great way to post a question or comment for other students who are currently enrolled in the course to see. Additionally, you can search the forum to see if anyone in the past has addressed or discussed the issue, question, or comment you wanted to post about.
