Guide to Freshman Composition
You need to communicate an array of diverse topics to your students to ensure that they achieve the most from their Freshman English experience. These topics include everything from your grading criteria to sample student papers to the school’s plagiarism policy, and you need to guarantee that all of your students receive this information. Fountainhead Press works with you to create an institution-specific “Freshman Guide to Composition.” This proven model helps you control the course outcome, while providing your students the tools necessary to succeed during the difficult beginning period of their academic careers.
