Are you ready for your first editing assignment? In this course, you will work on deadline to perform a heavy edit on all elements of a long manuscript. Examine complex problems in English usage, review topics introduced in earlier classes, and explore new topics. Although this class builds on the material taught in the prerequisite courses, it is a significant step up from Copyediting II. You will immediately use what you've learned to complete the course project: an original manuscript that you can edit to perfection.
Copyediting I, II, III and Grammar Lab are offered every quarter. Please check the Enrollment Available Online date on the Extension Calendar to find out the next date that classes will publish to the web.
- NOTE Prerequisites for enrollment: Successful completion of Copyediting II (WCWP-40237) and proficiency with electronic editing using MS Word. You may enroll in a future section of Copyediting III while currently taking the class mentioned above. Passing grades will be verified in prerequisites before the quarter begins. Allow yourself a minimum of 9 hours per week to work on assignments.
