HON 129: MODES OF DISCOURSE
Taken: Spring semester of freshman year
Faculty: Ralph M. Leary, Ph.D.
 and Barry McCauliff, M.A.
Course Description:
This course is a continuation of HON128: Modes of
Discourse. The purpose of this course is to develop and improve your
speaking and writing skills; in other words, to improve the ways in
which you communicate. We will study and evaluate the use of evidence,
reasoning, critical thinking, persuasion, and verbal and nonverbal
behavior. By looking at some of the principles involved in
interpersonal, small group, and one-way and two-way communication
situations, we will attempt to understand how these situations work so
that we might learn how to apply those principles in our own
interactions. (This course fulfills the general education requirement of
ENG111 and satisfies the requirements for the first year values flag..)
