Composition and Communication II is the advanced course in a two-course sequence designed to engage students in composing and communicating ideas using speech, writing, and visuals. In this course, students will work in small groups to explore issues of public concern using rhetorical analysis, engage in deliberation, compose conscientious and well-developed arguments, and propose viable solutions to different audiences. Students will sharpen their ability to conduct research; compose and communicate in spoken, written, and visual forms; and work effectively in teams through sustained interrogation of an issue. A significant component of the class will involve learning to use visual and digital resources both to enhance written and oral presentations and to communicate with public audiences. Prereq: CIS 110.
