This course invites students to discover the joy of writing while building the habits of a self-regulated learner. Drawing from A Dam Good Argument, the Berea Writes! handbook, and Writing Spaces, we explore how to analyze persuasion, construct strong arguments, work ethically with sources, revise with purpose, and manage writing anxiety.

Emphasis is placed on developing self-regulation strategies, goal-setting, self-monitoring, and reflection, alongside the craft of argument-driven writing. You will learn to write with confidence, curiosity, and joy.
