SPELL CHECK WON'T SAVE YOU! (PART 1)

SPELL CHECK WON’T SAVE YOU! (Part 1)
AH 112
Format B/C

We all want to communicate clearly and effectively in writing and in speech, but we can’t rely on Microsoft Word to be our copy editor. This course addresses the common grammatical and usage errors that often lead to comical, embarrassing and sometimes disastrous results. The two sessions will include punctuation, run-on sentences, tautological phrases, pronouns, subject-verb agreement, dangling participles and misplaced modifiers, and prepositions. Audio-visual aids, wordplay and humor ensure that snoozing is not an option. By popular demand, this is the beginning of a repeat of this 3-term, 7-session course, but new material has been added.

Presenter: Steve Weinstein, B.A. in English, University of Pittsburgh; and author of the book, Spell Check Won’t Save You!
