Writing 2 continues the work begun in Writing 1 on strengthening students' ability to write, read and discuss at the college level, with emphasis on literary and visual analysis, and research and argumentation skills. The course will revolve around a specific theme selected by the instructor.he notion of "seeing in common" takes social life as a crucial basis for how we encounter our insistently mutual present, our distinctive and overlapping histories, and our collectively imagined futures. As contemporary persons who find ourselves together in shared space and time, finding and making and doing our work, we come to shape these plural forms of life alongside and with the help very often of strangers. This course will make use of readily available resources (e.g., SFMOMA's Open Space, the remarkably generative online magazine edited and composed by mostly Bay Area artists and writers; plus other "open spaces" that we can visit). With materials common to us all at hand, we'll work at imagining and fielding questions, navigating mutual concerns over our hard-to grasp present, and finding ways to recognize and realize our beneficial interdependence. Student writing, putting shared resources into play, will move toward projects devoted to each student's focused area of study.
