EN 2012 - Advanced College Vocabulary

Hours: 2

The purpose of this course is to assist the college student by increasing, strengthening, and enhancing the student’s vocabulary, thus enabling the student to read college material as well as to write and speak well. A book, a computer software program, and supplemental materials as needed will be used to assist the student in recognizing and understanding words in isolation and in context, with the words defined and explained as used in phrases and sentences. Word attack skills taught will include word parts, word analysis, and use of a dictionary. The course is arranged to fit the schedule of the student and instructor. A pre-test is administered to find the proper placement for the student into the appropriate level of vocabulary lessons.
