COMP 112H Written Composition II: Honors

Division of Liberal Arts

3 credits 45.0 hours
100 level undergraduate course

A continuation of COMP*111, COMP*112H is the second part of a year-long course that builds on
and develops the writing and reading processes that lead to argumentation. During this term an
inquiry-based research paper is the focus, as well as grammatical and structural elements of
writing college-level essays. The independent research project allows students to utilize the
critical reading and writing skills introduced in COMP*111-describing, summarizing, analyzing, applying,
and synthesizing-to develop a scholarly argument. To illustrate the importance of context in the
process of research, a curriculum that is focused around a chosen theme is examined. Students
continue to access and assess the source material available from the library.

Prerequisites Placement into COMP*112H or completion of COMP*111
