Immersing Students in History | Drama on The Boston Common | Course Spotlight
In Boston University College of Arts & Sciences’ WR 151 course, students sharpen their critical reading and writing skills through close analysis of complex texts.
Throughout the course, Master Lecturer in the Writing Program Maria Gapotchenko challenges students to examine how arguments are constructed, evaluate evidence, and practice developing their own analytical writing. By breaking down ideas, identifying rhetorical strategies, and engaging with different perspectives, they build the foundation for stronger academic research and communication.
