Jeramy’s Teaching

In this course, students receive instruction in academic reading and writing, including writing processes, effective use of language, analytical thinking, and the foundations of academic research. English C1000E, the alternate course, is the same as English C1000 but includes two extra units of supplemental instruction and support.

My English C1000/E courses focus on an academic writing technique called “critical storytelling,” which is a critical framework for identifying, critiquing, and dismantling oppressive majoritarian narratives through the art of counterstorytelling. This course includes an examination of critical theory, critical race theory, and critical storytelling, and students can expect to advance their critical reading and writing techniques.

C1000 AB: M/W/F, 9:10-10:00 (syllabus)

C1000 AUX/BUX (Umoja): M/W/F, 11:10-12 (syllabus)

In this course, students are introduced to works by diverse authors and major literary genres, developing close reading and analytical writing skills. Students also develop appreciation for and critical understanding of the cultural, historical, and aesthetic qualities of literature. Writing a minimum of 5000 words of finished prose, students will learn to articulate their own views in a meaningful conversation between themselves and the literature. All course sections, each with its own theme, will explore poetry, drama, and fiction.
