The book is divided into sections that address the various stages of early college composition: ENGL 1101 introduces students to the fundamentals of college writing; ENGL 1102 acts as an introduction to literature; “Lit Survey” develops more advanced writing skills for sophomore humanities courses; and “WritDM” teaches the composition skills for writing in digital platforms. Each of these sections of the book will use the CompFAQ as its content.
