Our Courses

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​By the end of their courses in the Communication Skills Program, students will:

1.    Analyze texts through the context of their rhetorical situation and related conventions.
2.    Read texts critically to discover meaning and challenge ideas.
3.    Collaborate to discover ideas and to compose and revise texts. 
4.    Use  a recursive writing process to compose and revise texts, with judicious application of
       feedback (teacher, peer or self-reflection).
5.    Produce effective written communication that is sensitive to the rhetorical situation, 
       demonstrating appropriate choices at all levels (content, organization & language or style).
6.    Purposefully and ethically integrate material from sources while clearly articulating their own
       argument (main message).
