THE ENGLISH CENTER
At least ten pages of formal writing on literature, culture, or ideas are required in all sections of World Literature. World Literature faculty will guide students in the general planning and execution of this work. However, students who are not fully confident of their basic writing skills are strongly advised to consult the English Center, a free individual consulting service on writing maintained by the English Department for Auburn students and graduates. English Center consultants are prepared to assist students with all aspects of World Literature writing assignments. For complete information visit the English Center website.
WebCT
The University provides to all instructors this widely used course management tool, which permits online communication between instructors and students and among students in a class. In managing their courses some World Literature instructors may use some features of WebCT such as the posting of syllabi and/or grades, the transmission of assignments and submission of work, or discussion boards or chatrooms.
