ENGL 222 - Foundations in Grammar and Editing Credits: 3

A writing-intensive foundational study of grammar, syntax, style, and formatting with attention to effective communication as writers generally and as English majors specifically. Students will engage in exercises to understand and apply the interplay of content, form, and structure in writing, and the impact and methodologies of revision and editing. They will understand the context for editing from the entry-level job of copyediting to comprehensive editing, including the use of style sheets, and begin a portfolio of writing and editing samples.
