ENG 103 Course Learning Outcomes 

English 103 is the third in a three-quarter sequence Survey of British Literature: we study authors, literary works, and their literary-historical contexts of the 19th and 20th centuries. The Open Campus version of Eng 103 in Spring 2003 is delivered via televised course and electronic online media.  Through study of significant literary works of modern British literature, the English 103 student will be able to:

1.      Identify and explain significant characteristics of major British literary-historical periods (such as the Victorian Age, Realistic Novel, Aestheticism, Modernism, World War era, British Imperialism and Post-Colonialism), using illustrations from representative literary texts.

2.      Situate individual works of British literature within their larger literary-historical-biographical contexts, and explain significant ways that these texts reflect or represent those contexts.

3.      Define and illustrate key literary terms, genre conventions, and themes (such as point of view, narrative frame, Bryonic hero/ine, literary realism, dramatic monologue, historical fiction, politics of language), using well-selected examples from selected British literary texts.

4.      Trace key developments in British literature over time, identifying elements of continuity and change represented in individual works from different British literary-historical periods and movements.

5.      Identify and interpret significant relationships among the thematic content, literary form, and literary-historical contexts of selected individual texts.

6.      Communicate one's literary interpretations effectively in informal and formal writing, supported by well-selected evidence from literary works, and their contexts (e.g. relevant cultural, literary, historical, biographical backgrounds).

7.      Avoid plagiarism by citing course and any outside sources using an acceptable academic documentation style [i.e. MLA].

Plagiarism Policy

Proper citations and documentation of any sources that you quote, paraphrase, and/or summarize in your writing are required whenever you borrow the words, facts, and/or ideas of others. Note well that even putting others’ ideas into your own words (i.e. paraphrasing and summarizing) still means you are borrowing, and you need to give credit where credit is due. To avoid plagiarism, source(s) must be cited and documented, both:

(a) at the point in your papers where the borrowing occurs (using in-text and parenthetical citations for most documentation styles), and
(b) in a list of all sources cited given at the end of your papers

Plagiarism—intended or not—is considered a serious academic violation of intellectual property rights, and may earn your assignments an automatic "F" / 0 points - or worse. 
Directions & models for citing your sources in Humanities 211 assignments will be given and discussed further in class this term.
