Class Report, ENGL 1113.006 and 1113.007, 20140117

ENGL 1113.006 began as scheduled, at 11:30am in room 108 of the Classroom Building.  Nineteen students were listed on the roster, with no changes since the previous meeting.  All attended.

ENGL 1113.007 began as scheduled, at 12:30pm in room 122 of the Classroom Building.  Nineteen students were listed on the roster, with no changes since the previous meeting.  Eighteen attended.

Both sections discussed the results of diagnostic writing; commas with prepositional phrases, the provision of specific details, and over-reliance on the five-paragraph essay format were identified as concerns needing attention.  Also discussed were the ideas of writing as inquiry and academic writing as the creation of new knowledge.  Assignment sheets for the upcoming literacy narrative were distributed and reviewed.

Attendance in ENGL 1113.006 was taken informally due to attendance.  Attendance in ENGL 1113.007 was taken through a brief writing assignment asking after initial thoughts of topics for the literacy narrative.  Both classes received comment-bearing diagnostic essays.

Students are advised to keep up with the assigned readings, as quizzes are likley forthcoming.
