In addition to the many GSW course sections offered each semester, the program also offers a number of course variants which
have been assigned for specific populations of students.
GSW 1100W
These sections are for non-native speakers of English only and include the same kinds of assignments other 1100 students receive.
However, there is additional emphasis on ESL concerns, such as the development of skills in sentence structure, edited American
English usage, mechanics, and paragraph construction.
GSW 1100R, 1110R, and 1120R
GSW instructors teach these sections in the Chapman Learning Community at Kohl Hall. The Chapman Learning Community is a residential community in which students and faculty work especially close
with one another and students gain the experience of taking a number of classes with one another.
GSW 1110C and 1120C
These sections are taught by GSW instructors assigned to the Partners in Context and Community (PCC) Learning Community. The writing skills taught are the same as in other GSW classes, but because PCC students are education
majors, their writing assignments are based upon educational themes. Furthermore, students are required to engage in service
learning projects related to teaching.
GSW 1110A and 1120A
These sections are taught by GSW instructors assigned to teach in the Arts Village Residential Learning Community. The writing skills taught are the same as in other GSW classes, but assignments and activities are designed to appeal to
students who are especially interested in the arts.
GSW 1110G and 1120G
These sections are taught by GSW instructors who have been assigned to teach in the Global Village Learning Community. The writing skills that are taught are the same as in other GSW classes, but assignments and activities are designed to
appeal to students who are especially interested in global issues.
GSW 1120H
Incoming students accepted into the University Honors Program and eligible to enroll in English 112 are invited to enroll in these sections, created to challenge students to develop their
critical thinking and writing skills in special ways. To teach GSW 1120H, instructors must submit a GSW 1120H course proposal
for approval by the GSW Director and the Honors Program Director.
