Free lesson plans, ideas, and online mysteries to teach critical thinking and reading comprehension.
Mysteries get reluctant students enthusiastic about reading, thinking and writing. While textbooks can be dry, mysteries, with their intrigue, characters, and gradually revealed storyline, hold the students' interest. Students become involved in what they are reading because they use deductive reasoning and research skills to solve the mystery.
This MA program prepares students for successful careers as writers and communication specialists in the working world of business, industry, education, and government. Courses focus on rhetorical analysis, theories of writing, document design, editing and usability testing, document management, web design, and literacy studies. Areas of study include written and visual rhetoric, recognizing and understanding professional, educational, and business contexts, and using professional composition tools. Online and face-to-face courses allow students to study writing, literacy, and document design on campus and on the internet.
