WSIE-3001Writing for Academic Inquiry
In this reinforcing writing course, students strengthen their academic writing through inquiry, critical reading, and iterative writing processes that support clear scholarly communication in academic contexts. They critically evaluate sources, summarize, paraphrase, and synthesize complex texts, and integrate evidence to develop coherent academic arguments. Students also build independent research and writing habits while using sources and artificial intelligence (AI) tools ethically and with integrity. The course encourages engagement with varied perspectives and diverse ways of knowing, helping students write with clarity and purpose across disciplines. Through guided practice and reflection, students produce responsible academic writing that prepares them for research and communication tasks in academic and professional contexts.
