the English major or to any college-level study of the Humanities. This course fulfills
the Humanities requirement for Texas Tech University’s Core Curriculum.
Through our reading, thinking, discussing, and writing in this section of English 2391,
we will focus on key questions about the liberal arts, humanities, literature, and
language. We will consider professional issues and contexts in higher education. We
will review and discuss specific issues in literature and language. We will talk about
career planning and life-long learning. An emphasis will be placed on active learning,
critical thinking, and effective communication as we focus on improving our writing.
Students will be expected to complete reading and writing assignments each week; to
access materials online through the library and through web links on Blackboard; to
take one language test and one literature test; and to participate in interactive
discussions.
This is an online course, so students will need reliable internet access, and students’
computers must be technologically configured to use the university’s official online
learning platform, Blackboard. (Guides are available at www.Blackboard.ttu.edu, and
personal assistance is available through IT Help Central.) Students must also obtain
and be able to use Skype (a free program) to communicate with their professor;
depending on the computer being used, a student may need to have an external
microphone with a headset in order to use Skype.
As with all of the English Department’s distance classes, during the first part of
preregistration the course will be available only to distance students (non-Lubbock
student), but the restriction will be removed April 23 and enrollment will open to all
students.
Anyone is welcome to enroll in English 2391 who meets the basic prerequisites for a
sophomore English class. This is an excellent class for students of all majors and for
University Studies or General Studies students as well as for teacher certification
students and for English majors and minors of all kinds (that is, literature and language,
linguistics, creative writing, and/or technical communication students).
For more information about the class, please contact Dr. Hurst at
maryjane.hurst@ttu.edu. Before the summer term begins, Dr. Hurst will e-mail
enrolled students with welcome messages explaining how to get ready for and how to
begin this class.
