RHET 102 Rhetoric and Research Writing
The second course of the rhetoric sequence, RHET 102: Rhetoric and Research Writing, introduces students to research and information literacy strategies while reinforcing and expanding on the rhetorical concepts introduced in RHET 101; in addition to reading and responding to linguistic-centered text (such as words written in an article or book), RHET 102 introduces students to multimodal reading and composing strategies, emphasizing that writing (especially the writing we engage with in the current digital age) means attending to visual, aural, spatial, gestural, and algorithmically-arranged design, just as much as alphabetic text. The coursework culminates to a final portfolio that includes an analysis essay, an annotated bibliography, a substantial research project, and a reflective essay. Required course: student must achieve a grade of "C" or above to meet this requirement.
PRQ: Grade of "C" or above in RHET 101 or departmental approval of transfer credit.
Scheduled: Fall/Spring, yearly.
