BRIDGE405‒ Putting It All Together: Description

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

After students have studied reading comprehension, critical thinking and composition… they are ready to demonstrate the skills they have gained by completing a research assignment and writing and submitting an opinion essay for evaluation.

Students will compose and submit an initial draft as well as a final version of an essay chosen by the student from a short list of topics the seminary provides‒ receive feedback on their work from an instructor‒ and then revise the essay accordingly.

Students will utilize a rubric grid provided to students to assist them in meeting standards of strong, clear and proper writing.
