English 358, Intermediate Composition
Intermediate composition is a course in the building blocks of nonfiction writing. It is not a course in writing for any specific academic discipline, nor for writing in the workplace, but many of the skills and concepts should be transferable to other writing situations. I have chosen popular culture as a topical focus for the course because composition courses generally benefit from a thematic focus and all of us have a wealth of knowledge about this topic already. In addition to improving your writing, I hope that you will think carefully and insightfully about the role of popular culture in your life.
