Students are introduced to a variety of critical approaches and writing strategies as well as to a wide selection of authors. Students will be encouraged to bring chapters of a novel or their own stories to workshops for reading and discussion by their peers. The unit will also concentrate on other methods of evaluation and revision. Students will produce a portfolio of original prose for this unit.
