English Comp has not significantly altered or updated the 2015 text, though it has omitted chapters not germane to its focus.
The second book that makes up English Comp is Methods of Discovery by Pavel Zemliansky, and last updated by Joseph J. Selvaggio on 9/15/14. This work is made available under the following license:
- English Comp has updated portions of the text, adding in information unique Frederick Community College, and generally removing personal references/examples the author uses through the text. Chapters from Methods of Discovery form the argumentation chapters of English Comp.
English Comp was edited in the summer of 2023, to update broken links, as defined by instructor users.
English Comp also includes content specific to the Frederick Community College English department unique to ENGL 101, college writing, culturally responsive learning, and AI advice for both teachers and students (the latter two updated in 2023).
