Description

This course is designed to enhance international students' academic literacies, and is aimed at students with a basic understanding of academic discourses and expectations, having already completed introductory-level Academic Writing. It will enable students to explore the knowledge and expectations for producing academic and professional texts. Students have opportunities to enhance their writing competencies and become aware of the convention-driven expectations involved in academic writing. Throughout the course, students come to appreciate their existing linguistic repertoires and develop new ones that enable them to participate legitimately in their desired professional and/or academic communities, particularly at the university level.

Requisite courses

Any section of Academic Writing or exemption from the writing requirement [prerequisite(s)].
