课程名称:大学写作:说服性与论证性论文 概述:欢迎参加《大学写作:说服性与论证性论文》课程。本课程旨在帮助从美国高中或外国大学转学到美国大学写作课程的学生,教授撰写清晰、有条理、充分支持的学术论证所需的技能。这些技能适用于大多数ACT、SAT、TOEFL、IELTS、GRE写作任务以及几乎所有课程中的大学写作作业。所有美国大学的学生都需要修读大学写作课程,但这些课程的高失败率令人担忧。这种失败率部分源于学生所学课程(如美国高中或其它国家的EFL/ESL课程)与大学课程所需技能之间的巨大差距。在前一阶段,学生通常只会学习如何写100-300字的报告,但未曾学习如何撰写长度在1,000到5,000字之间的学术论证。遗憾的是,大学写作课程要求学生在进入课程时就具备这些写作能力,这使得大量学生不得不重修写作课程,浪费了时间和金钱。 本课程的目标是帮助尽可能多的学生在首次面对美国大学写作课程时取得成功。我将使用简单的英语和概念,以确保学生能够理解课程内容。同时,我采用大纲和论证图的方式,使本课程的学生无论背景如何,都能掌握学术论证的基本形式。这些知识将有助于学生在其他大学课程中提升学期论文的成绩,从而提高他们的整体GPA和被研究生院录取的机会。 诚挚地, 丹尼尔·卡伦
Welcome to University Writing: Persuasive and Argumentative Essays. Its purpose is to aid students transitioning either from American high schools or foreign universities into an American university's writing program. It teaches the skills required to create a clear, well organized, adequately supported academic argument. The likes of which make up the vast majority of ACT, SAT, TOEFL, IELTS, GRE writing tasks, and university writing assignments, encountered in almost all classes.University writing courses are required by all American university students. Unfortunately, they have an extremely high failure rate. This failure rate is in part due to a large gap between the skills taught in the classes students are coming from like American high schools and EFL/ESL classes taught in other countries and the required skills for university classes. In the classes the students are coming from, they are shown how to write 100-300 word reports on a given topic. But, never how to write proper academic arguments that are between 1,000 and 5,000 words in length. Unfortunately, it is expected that students know how to write these types of papers before coming to university writing classes. This gap in knowledge causes a large number of students to have to repeat their writing courses, wasting time and money.My goal for this course is to help ensure as many students as possible are successful the first time they are faced with an American university writing class. I will use simple English and concepts to make sure the students can understand the content. I use outlines and argument diagrams so that the students of this course, regardless of their background, can grasp the fundamental form of academic arguments in a wide variety of fields for just about any purpose. This knowledge, carried into other university courses, will help students obtain stronger grades on their term papers. This, in turn, will help to improve a student's overall GPA and their chances of being accepted into graduate school.Sincerely,Daniel Current
