where english & legal studies shake hands
Semester: Fall 2014
ENGH 386 - Editing for Audience, Style and Voice
Instructor: Steven Corbett
ENGH 386 introduces students to editing, interviewing, design, and peer review. This course introduces eportfolios and learning how it functions. Mason does not have an eportfolio database, but as a class all students used Colorado State University. All writing assignments were uploaded to the students individual eportfolio; however, it cannot be viewed publicly. Students interested in learning persuasive writing and the fundamentals of rhetoric would benefit from this course.
Paper Assignment
Interview with Jenny & Lauren
This is a writing intensive course, but the writing was often—fun! The paper chosen is about an interview I conducted with two of my group mates. Design was heavily required, integrating direct interview quotes, and proper characterization. The paper was peer reviewed twice, then submitted to my eportfolio.
