Description

As the second-level writing course usually taken in the student's first year, ILAR-101 serves both as a second-level writing course and as an introduction to various disciplines within the Liberal Arts. It helps students to develop the skills introduced in the first-level writing course (ENGL-101 or 105) with a focus on research and the techniques associated with academic writing. While the course is offered in sections with unique emphases, the general writing requirements and grading policy are universal. The course takes advantage of our location in Philadelphia by using museums and other sites in the city as part of the overall course experience. Students are expected to make at least two (2) site visits during the semester. Pre-requisites: ENGL-101 or 105; or IDHP-200. (Formerly ILAU-101.)
