In EGL 0100S, students receive support in all stages of the writing process (including brainstorming, prewriting, drafting, revising, and providing peer feedback), as well as in reading and comprehending college-level materials. Through metacognitive practices, students reflect on their writing and use this knowledge to revise their work to improve both rhetorical effectiveness and grammatical accuracy.
