English 110 prepares students to develop foundational skills in critical reading, analysis, and writing with a focus on transferable techniques for academic disciplines. Through selected readings from NVIT's Indigenous anthologies, a variety of selected texts, and Internet sources, students will explore and respond to diverse arguments and issues in contemporary culture through an Indigenous lens. Emphasis will focus on the writing process by revising and rewriting essays to produce grammatically correct sentences, well-developed paragraphs, and logically coherent essays. As well, students will learn to develop and hone their research skills by gathering information from primary and secondary sources. Learners will read a variety of texts, analyze them for their content and language and style, and write both expository and persuasive essays to improve their academic writing. The course will also emphasize analysis of textual rhetoric, discourse, and style. By the end, students will have gained the necessary skills to write, revise, and analyze university-level essays effectively. 2026/01/12-2026/04/22 Lecture Monday, Wednesday 10:45AM - 12:15PM, 4155 Belshaw, Room U011
