Material Detail

Introduction to College Composition was developed by Lumen Learning in collaboration with Cerritos College (Norwalk, CA). It is designed as a resource for the precollege English composition classroom. It aligns with ENG 020 and is the first of a three-course “Path to College Composition” series. All courses in this series focus on the same primary content areas:

• Critical Reading
• Writing Process
• Research Process
• Grammar and Mechanics

In Introduction to College Composition, most of the learning outcomes in each of these four areas are written to the analyze level of Bloom’s Taxonomy (e.g., “Analyze topic selection activities,” “Analyze summary skills for reading comprehension”).

This is a course that is offered by Lumen Learning. Although a course, it can easily be used as a textbook and has multiple links to OERs, including readings and videos. Lumen Learning’s mission is to make great learning opportunities available to all students, regardless of socioeconomic background.

This is being categorized as an interactive textbook for the COOL4Ed project.

This course is taught using a mastery approach. It was designed to give you the best opportunity for success. Your instructor will guide you through the process, but below are some important things to keep in mind as you begin.
