ENC 1101: Fall 2021

Announcements

This is where I will put any announcements regarding COVID or hurricanes if they impact our course.

Course Introduction

Welcome to ENC 1101 at the University of Central Florida! This course develops students’ knowledge of what writing is and how it functions in the world. By examining writing as an object of study, the ENC 1101 curriculum invites students to understand their writing as situated within academic, professional, civic, and personal contexts and to develop their identities and abilities as writers across these settings. The reading and writing tasks featured in ENC 1101—such as analyses of writing processes and practices, patterns of literacy sponsorship, and conceptions of writing—provide the frameworks students will use to explore the writing they do throughout their lives, how it is accomplished, and the various roles and functions it serves. In addition to helping students interrogate and expand their understanding of writing and writers, these frameworks will allow students to continually adapt their writing-related knowledge and abilities to the new writing situations they’ll encounter throughout college and beyond.
