INRW 0310. Integrated R ading & Writing I (3-3-0)
Integration of critical reading and academic writing skills. This course seeks to improve students’ academic
reading and writing skills through extensive integrated instruction emphasizing skills and techniques
related to vocabulary, grammar, comprehension, paragraph elements, essay structure, and critical analysis.
Students will demonstrate comprehension of varied texts through written responses, progressing from
advanced paragraphs to short essays. The required lab component will target students’ individual skill
levels. Required co-enrollment: INRW 0110
INRW 0320. Integrated Reading & Writing II (3-3-0)
Integration of critical reading and academic writing skills. The course fulfills TSI requirements for reading
and/or writing. Additionally, this combined lecture/lab course is designed to develop students’ critical
reading and academic writing skills. The focus of the course will be on applying critical reading skills for
organizing, analyzing, and retaining material and developing written work appropriate to the audience,
purpose, situation, and length of the assignment. The course integrates preparation in basic academic
reading skills with basic skills in writing a variety of academic essays. Required co-enrollment: INRW 0120
