ENG 212 Introduction to Creative Writing
3 hours
ENG 212 invites students to think creatively and write original stories, poems, and personal narratives. The semester starts with short readings and creative exercises that give students practice in each form and help them gain familiarity with a writer’s tools. Participants then write and present their original creative work for constructive criticism from peers and instructor. This collaborative work is the core of the writing workshop. Students incorporate class comments and their own new thinking into the revisions of their drafts, an essential step in the writing process.
Note: This course is part of the John Jay College Option: Communications area of the Gen Ed Program.
