First Writing Assignment

Hello Freshmen! Welcome to Shenzhen University! I am looking forward to meeting all of you this week.

We will be starting this first assignment in class this week. It will be due the second time we meet (after the holiday.) I will want to see two things from you - your notes from the interview and any "pre-writing" that you do (this part should be handwritten) and then your paper (this part must be typed and formatted according to the powerpoint we will go over in class).

See you in class!

Handbook for Writing by James Roth

Students,

James Roth is the course leader for Reading and Writing this semester. He has created a very useful handbook. You are not required to print this, but it is a valuable resource that you might want to have in your library. I may refer to some of the sections from time to time.
