Availability: I look forward to conferring with you individually about your work in this course. I
will usually be available in the hour after the second class. In addition, there will be opportunities
for individual conferencing during class time on some days. However, it is best to let me know in
advance if you would like to talk with me, so we can be sure to schedule enough time for our
conference.

If I am unavailable, leave a message, telling me the best times to return your call and giving me
your phone number. Be sure to clearly identify yourself and the specific class you are in.
Note on email style: When you email me, please use standard written English and proofread your
message. Avoid slang. Write complete sentences, capitalize proper nouns and the beginning word
of each sentence, and use correct punctuation, for instance. Don’t forget to sign your name,
identifying yourself. Write as an academic or professional colleague to a fellow colleague.
Mission Statement of the English Department: The purposes of the English Department are to
provide courses that transfer to four-year colleges; introduce students to literature from diverse
traditions; prepare students to write clear, communicative, well-organized, and detailed prose; and
further develop students’ reading, writing, and analytical skills.
As a Core Curriculum Course, 1301 develops all six of the basic intellectual competencies
discussed in the HCCS Catalog: reading, writing, speaking, listening, critical thinking, and
computer literacy. These competencies are essential to success in all academic and professional
fields. In Comp I, we are particularly concerned with strengthening such skills as clarity in purpose
and expression, full development of ideas, sensitivity to audience, and effectively revising and
editing, or proofreading, one’s work.
EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES (COURSE OBJECTIVES) FOR ENGLISH 1301:
By the time the students have completed English 1301, they will:
•understand writing as a connected and interactive process which includes planning, shaping,
drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading;
•apply writing process to out-of-class writing;
•apply writing process as appropriate to in-class; impromptu writing situations, thus showing an
ability to communicate effectively in a variety of writing situations (such as essay exams and
standardized writing tests like the TASP);
•apply suggestions from evaluated compositions to other writing projects;
•understand and apply basic principles of critical thinking in analyzing reading selections, in
developing expository essays, and writing argumentative essays;
•apply concepts from and use references to assigned readings in developing essays;
•analyze elements of purpose, audience, tone, style, and writing strategy in essays by professional
writers
•complete short writing assignments, journal entries, readings quizzes, and other activities to
strengthen basic thinking and writing skills
•understand and appropriately apply various methods of development in writing assignments;
•avoid faulty reasoning in all writing assignments;
English 1301 Summer I 2011
Dr. Rowe 2
•fulfill the writing requirements of the course, writing at least 6,000 words during the semester.
*Note on five-week courses: If you have serious difficulties with written English, it is much better
for you to take a sixteen week version of 1301 in order to have more time to work on problem
areas.
Required texts and materials:
*Peterson, Linda and John C. Brereton. The Norton Reader, 12th edition.
*Fowler, H. Ramsey, Jane E. Aaron, and Janice Okoomian. The Little, Brown Handbook, 11th
edition. Or The Little, Brown Handbook (2007), second custom edition for the Southwest College.
Although the covers differ, the pagination of these two versions is the same.
*A lightweight, metal-pronged, 8 1/2 by 11 folder with side pockets, in which to affix your journal
assignments. Large binders are not acceptable.
*A good college dictionary. I recommend The American Heritage College Dictionary, 4th edition,
with downloadable audio.
*A removable device on which to save your word-processed work.
Notice: It is required that you bring your textbooks, your journal, and other materials to class with
you. This is part of your preparation and participation grade. Your ability to participate, and thus to
learn, is impaired when you do not regularly bring your required materials.
Policies: Attendance: HCCS policy states that a student who misses more than 12.5% (or one-eighth)
of class time may be dropped by the instructor. Three classes equal one-eighth in our case. Attendance
is extremely important and affects your participation grade because you cannot participate if you are
not present. If you miss most of a class session, you are absent. For instance, if you stay for the roll and
then leave soon after, you will be absent, not present. Students who intend to withdraw from the
course must do so by the official last day to drop (*Wednesday June 29 by 4:30 PM –deadline for
dropping with a W instead of a grade*). Students who prefer to receive an F rather than a W will
need to attend classes throughout the semester and take the final exam or discuss the situation with the
instructor before they stop attending the class.
Lateness: Avoid chronic lateness. If you must come in late on occasion, please come in quietly and
unobtrusively, and sign in at the end of class.
Incompletes will be considered only when students have satisfactorily completed the vast majority of
the required assignments and are faced with an unforeseen and well-documented emergency at the very
end of the course.
Withdrawal Policy:
The State of Texas has begun to impose penalties on students who drop courses excessively. For
example, if you take the same course more than twice, you have to pay extra tuition. Beginning in the
Fall of 2007, the Texas Legislature passed a law limiting first time entering students to no more than
six total course withdrawals throughout their academic career in obtaining a certificate or baccalaureate
degree. There may be future penalties imposed.
**If you do not withdraw before the deadline, you will receive the grade that you are making as the
final grade. This grade will probably be an “F.” The last day to withdraw is Wednesday June 29,by
4:30 PM. If you need to drop, please let me know or speak with a counselor before the deadline.
**You should communicate with your instructor, an HCC counselor, or HCC Online Student Services
to learn what HCC interventions might be offered to assist you to stay in class and improve your
performance. Such interventions could include tutoring, child care, financial aid, and job placement.
International Students:
Receiving a “W” in a course may affect the status of your student visa. Once a “W” is given for the
course, it will not be changed to an “F” because of the visa consideration. Please contact the
Success key-- Read and work ahead as much as possible, and review the
syllabus and schedule of assignments often.

International Student Office at 713-718-8520 if you have any questions about your visa status and any
other transfer issues.
Student Course Reinstatement Policy
Students have a responsibility to arrange payment for their classes when they register, either
through cash, credit card, financial aid, or the installment plan. Students who are dropped from
their courses for non-payment of tuition and fees who request reinstatement after the official date
of record can be reinstated by making payment in full and paying an additional $75.00 per course
reinstatement fee. The academic dean may waive the reinstatement fee upon determining that the
student was dropped because of a college error.
Use of Cameras and Recording Devices
Use of recording devices, including camera phones and tape recorders, is prohibited in classrooms,
laboratories, faculty offices, and other locations where instruction, tutoring, or testing occurs. These
devices are also not allowed to be used in campus restrooms. Students with disabilities who need to use
a recording device as a reasonable accommodation should contact the Office for Students with
Disabilities for information regarding reasonable accommodations.
Scholastic Dishonesty: Students engaged in scholastic dishonesty, or plagiarism - the representation
of someone else’s work or words as their own - will be subject to a grade of zero on the assignment,
which will not be eligible for revision. The second offense will mandate an automatic F in the course.
Late Papers: Essays and journal work are to be prepared on time. Work turned in late will be graded
at a higher standard and returned later than work done on time. That also applies to “redos,” when a
work is redone to comply with assignment instructions. Assignments turned in more than one class
meeting late will lose 5 points per class meeting unless you receive special permission from me and
follow my instructions carefully.
General Electronics Policies
1. Turn off and put away all cell phones, beepers, text-messaging devices and other electronic devices
when class starts. The sounds of cell phones ringing during class are disruptive. No cell phones
permitted in view.
2. No Bluetooth devices in ears allowed during class.
3. No MP3 players or other music devices with earphones allowed during class.
4. No laptops open during class.
5. You can answer your calls and make calls during your break between classes.

Student Organizations of interest to students taking English classes:
One organization of interest to students taking English classes is Southwest Writers, a group of
students who write and read their works (in a public forum as well as on the Internet) and receive peer
support and constructive criticism. Students in this group create a supportive network to create poetry,
fiction, drama, and non-fiction prose. Contact advisor Dr. Chris Dunn at: christopher.dunn@hccs.edu.
Another organization of interest for English students is the Women’s Studies Club. The Women’s
Studies Club will meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month from 2:00-3:00pm to discuss the roles
of women in society and to promote awareness of women’s issues. Contact Ms. Marie Dybala at
marie.dybala@hccs.edu and/or Ms. Ileana Loubser at ileana.loubser@hccs.edu if you are interested in
joining this HCC student organization. In addition, Phi Theta Kappa is the honor society of two-year
colleges. Students must earn a 3.5 grade point average and accumulate 9 credit hours to join this group.
HCCS has a very active chapter: Omega Sigma. Contact: Ms. Eunice Kallarackal at:
eunice.kallarackal@hccs.edu for more information.
Disability Issues: Any student with a documented disability (e.g. physical, learning, psychiatric,
vision, hearing, etc.) who needs to arrange reasonable accommodations must contact the Disability
Services Office at the respective college at the beginning of each semester. Faculty members are
authorized to provide only the accommodations requested by the Disability Support Services Office.

*Extra Credit may be awarded for work that enhances the learning experience of the class or that
demonstrates definite and strong engagement in the learning process, or for extraordinarily good
journal work, up to a maximum of 5 points added to final course grade, depending on the quantity
and quality of what you do. This might also include a special project we agree on, such as teaching
someone to read through one of the literacy organizations, or volunteering to read a chapter aloud
at librivox.org.
*Note on journal: The journal assignments, which will be similar to informal essays, will be not
graded on grammar and organization, as most other writing will be, but rather on the fullness,
specificity, and liveliness of your responses. They should demonstrate that you have closely read
and considered the readings on which they are based. Each assignment should be prepared on time,
and you should be prepared to read from it and talk about it at some length. In addition, you should
affix the assignments to a metal-pronged folder in a neat and orderly way, so that I may easily and
quickly review them. You should have a title page at the front with your name and course
indicated. Each assignment should be clearly indicated and you should refer clearly to the names
of authors and the titles of their respective works in your comments so that the reader will not get
confused about what writer or whom or what work you are talking about at any given moment.
Each assignment should contain lots of words, 700 or more, for maximum credit. Rough drafts of
major essay assignments should be longer, 750 or more words. We may, also, from time to time,
have impromptu journal writing assignments, so be sure to bring some clean 8 1/2 x 11 inch
college-ruled paper with you. Also, I may sometimes assign exercises to include in your journal for
practice. Use dark pen, or type, for out of class journal work.
Remember: Always bring your two textbooks and your journal to class each and every time, so that
we may be able to refer to and discuss any of these any time. I will be checking this from time to time.
Whether you bring all these materials, including your updated journal, affects your preparation and
participation grade.
HCC Student Email Accounts
All students who have registered and paid for courses at HCC automatically have an HCC email
account generated for them. For email communication in this class, I want you to use your HCC email
account. To find info on this, go to the HCC home page at <www.hccs.edu/portal/site/hccs> then click
on Current Students in the left column. Once there, click on Student E-Mail under Student Support.
This will enable me to easily communicate with the class concerning updates and other information.
Severe Weather
During severe weather conditions, monitor major local television and radio channels for updates on
school closings. You can also check at the HCC home page: <http://hccs.edu>.
Teaching Philosophy: I think one of the best models for college education is that of the learning
community. We all come together “collegially” to share things that we know and have
experienced, and to learn from others who know and have experienced other things, as well as
similar things. I also like the following proverb: “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do
and I understand.” To learn you have to be active and involved. Concerning teaching writing,
specifically, I like to say, “Quantity precedes quality.” That means a sufficient number of words
have to be written on the page before we can work on polish and readability. The aphorism also
suggests the truth that one must practice and study much, in order to improve as a writer. Skill
does not come magically or instantly with the wave of a wand.

The Southwest College offers free English tutoring at our tutoring centers (Stafford, Alief, and
West Loop) or our on-line tutoring support services. Signs will be posted once the current term’s
tutoring hours have been established. On-line tutoring services include <askonline.net>. To access
askonline, you will need to use your HCC student email address.
Courtesy issues: These are the ones that especially bug me.
*Please avoid having private conversations with other class members during class discussion.
*In computer labs, turn off your monitor during class discussion. It is distracting both to you and
to the other people in the class, including me, to be using your computer during discussion or
lecture.
*Please don’t pack up books and belongings prior to being dismissed. Doing that is noisy and
impolite.
*Be considerate in how you enter or leave a classroom that is in session. Open and close the door
quietly, for instance.
*One of my least favorite scenarios is as follows:
It is just before class. I’m getting ready to begin class or maybe have already started class.
Someone comes up to me and asks, “Are you doing anything important today? And by the way,
could you give me the one-minute version of what is to transpire before I leave?” The answer is
“Yes, I'm always doing something important, or at least I’m trying to do so. And no, I can't
condense for you the experience of being involved in the class discussion and other activities.”
I do very much like people getting involved, preparing, participating, and making an effort.
Lab Conduct/Rules:
*No cell phones – cell phones should be turned off prior to entering class and are not allowed in
sight – please place them in bags or pockets.
*No Bluetooth or other electronic devices in ears allowed during class.
*No MP3 players or other music devices with earphones allowed during class.
*No laptops open during class.
*No palm pilots
*No food or drinks
*No unauthorized chatting
*No students allowed to print personal information or download vast amounts of data (Students are
only allowed to print class assignments per the instructor’s directions)
*No viewing of pornography
*No hacking attempts or trying to access hacking sites
*No downloading of AOL.com

Please note -- the above rules are maintained to enhance the lab experience for all HCCS
students. All computer lab activities will be monitored carefully by the instructor and HCCS IT
personnel.
*The Fifteen Minute Rule: If for some reason you’ve waited a full fifteen minutes from starting
time and I haven’t arrived, class is dismissed. We will take up where we left off when next we
meet. Follow the schedule in the meantime.
Schedule of Assignments and Activities
I have listed below beside each class date the assignments you are to have prepared by the
beginning of class time as well as activities planned for particular days. I will give you more
specific details as we go along. I hope to have some surprises from time to time, as well, so that
what we do isn’t too predictable. Also, since the composition of each class is different and has
correspondingly different needs, there almost certainly will need to be some changes as we go
along. It is your responsibility to note any such changes and find out about them if you miss part or
all of any class period. Page numbers refer to the Norton Reader unless the Little, Brown
Handbook is denoted.
