1. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND GOALS This course will help students learn to write effectively in a business environment. Students will focus on improving their communication skills, particularly through writing. We will be using a two-pronged approach to this:
a) developing tools for sound analysis of business situations in order to write appropriately, whether sending brief e-mail messages or preparing long reports; and
b) honing basic writing skills.
Students will read case histories and be expected to discuss them, solve business communication problems, write brief assignments and prepare one long report (10-15 pp).
2. PREREQUISTES Competency in writing sentences and paragraphs. Competency in using a word processor and an e-mail program.
3. POLICIES As with any class completing the assigned work on time is mandatory for success. If you fall behind for any reason, contact me immediately. We can work things out, but not after the fact.
Plagiarism is using the words or ideas of another person without acknowledging your source. Please respect your sources, your audience and yourself and don't fall into this trap (I am a stickler for this). If I catch a student cheating or committing plagiarism, you will fail the course and may be subject to dismissal or further discipline. This includes copying other's homework.
4. TEXT There is no text book for this class. All readings and assignments are found on EngSite/Elite. |
