Course outline View

ENGL 0600 is an elective course for ABE Fundamental students who speak English as an additional language (EAL) or students who are interested in learning about grammar topics for writing Standard English. This course helps students improve the clarity and effectiveness of their writing through the use of Standard English grammar. Students will identify their grammar trouble spots and make a tailored learning plan based on the grammar topics that suit their needs. In addition to completing focussed exercises, students will use a writing process to plan, create, revise, and edit a variety of paragraphs. Through guided practice, students work toward self-editing their paragraphs and applying the new grammar skills they have learned. Overall, students will become increasingly skilled writers of Standard English to achieve their personal, social, academic, and career goals.
