Using an audience-centered approach, students will learn the difference between readers and users, and how that affects the writer's approach to researching and presenting information.

MATH214M - Calculus II This the second course in the Calculus sequence. Topics include definite and indefinite integration, integration of elementary transcendental functions, improper integration, and series including Taylor and Maclaurin series. Methods of integration are studied. Concepts are reinforced with applications including areas and volumes of revolution, work, arc length, centroids, and power series representation of functions. Satisfactory placement test scores, or successful completion (grade of C or better) of MATH204M, or permission of the instructor.

ADMT210M - Manufacturing Systems I Students will explore fluid power controls, manufacturing component capacities and functions for automated manufacturing. This will include the logic controls and setups for creating systems needed in the manufacturing production line. Discussion will include the development of individual mechanical component setups to arrive at the desired output of the mechanisms in the system. Learning activities will include the use of computer simulation and hands-on applications of an operational production component. Each mechanism will be studied as to the specifications, functions, and safe operation. Throughout the course, emphasis will be placed on effective workplace skills including teamwork, integrity, and dependability. Prerequisites: AMT120M

ENGL213M - Creative Writing In this course, students will learn and practice the techniques of creative writing using a combination of lecture, writing exercises, and workshops.

Students conduct intensive research on a contemporary problem, grounding themselves in its context, causes, and possible solutions to produce a documented Central Course Essay. Research methods covered include locating, integrating, and citing source materials as well as appropriate use of quotes, paraphrases, and summaries. Basic information literacy skills such as evaluating sources for credibility and identifying mis/dis/mal-information, particularly in online materials, are emphasized. Writing is approached as an iterative process that engages various stages and employs a variety of rhetorical approaches to produce a polished final essay.
