Description

Features

What are the goals for this course? 

Is it important for your students to be able to use the handbook outside of class?

• The Blair Handbook gives help where you expect it and in a way that is easy to find.
• The four-color, strategic design helps students locate information quickly, as they can identify the parts of the book with their corresponding color bands and other navigation tools 
• The Preface includes an illustration of how to use the Blair Handbook.
• Comprehensive coverage of all handbook concerns, organized according to the logic of the writing process:
  •     The opening section focuses on planning and drafting.
  •     Later sections examine research, revising, and editing.
  •     Style, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics are presented as “editing” choices that writers make in the final stages of the writing process.

How important is it for students to understand and implement a process as they write?

• Teachable treatment of the process of writing
• The opening chapters examine the writing process, offering ideas and strategies to help writers shape, organize, and give voice to their work.
• Detailed chapters cover many common purposes for college writing – reflecting on experience, explaining things, arguing positions, and writing about literature, as well as composing creative nonfiction, keeping journals, and constructing essay examinations.

Is WRITING ACROSS THE CURRICULIM an important component of your course?

• Takes great care to discuss rhetorical strategies and writing conventions of specific disciplinary areas to non-specialist audiences.
• New WAC Boxes offer suggestions for assigning and responding to writing in disciplines across the curriculum and the world of work. 
• The supplementary WAC PAC is available to support teaching and learning.
• Part Seven is dedicated to Writing in the Disciplines.

• Prepares students to write effectively in the various situations they are likely to encounter in college and beyond.

Do you have ESL or multilingual students in your course?

• Pays careful attention to the needs of second-language and multilingual students
• Graphically distinct boxes throughout the text provide information on topics from grammar, idioms, and usage, to the how and why of rhetorical conventions. All these boxes have been critically reexamined and revised for the fifth edition.
• NEW ESL Index makes it easy for ESL and multilingual students to find the content that will help them most. 

Do you want your students to understand how to effectively analyze visual and use visuals in their writing? 

• Emphasizes the importance of visual rhetoric and design
• New Chapter 3 introduces students to critical terminology for understanding and talking about visual images
• Includes visual images throughout to illustrate the effective use of visual design.

Is it important for your students to appreciate the purpose of revision and editing?

• Presents editing as a matter of conventions, not rules 
• The editing chapters focus on editing as a process focusing on effectiveness, usage, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
• Hand-edited examples illustrate how writers revise and edit, showing proven strategies for focusing loose paragraphs, strengthening weak sentences, and finding precise and suitable words.
• Emphasizes grammatical and mechanical processes in everyday language and helps readers identify, analyze, and resolve confusing language problems.

Do you feel plagiarism is an issue with today's students, particulary considering the growth of the Internet? Do you teach strategies for avoiding plagiarism?

• Special attention is given to understanding and avoiding plagiarism
• Because of the ever-increasing ease of copying material from electronic souces, we expanded the discussion of plagiarism in both intentional and unintentional forms.
• Clear explanations and illustrations of the do’s and don'ts of quoting and documenting will help students avoid breaches of academic ethics.

How do you encourage students to use writing as effective communication? 

• New Attention to Public Discourse - New chapters on “Reading Visual Texts” and “Writing for the World.” 

• Expanded coverage of document design, creating Web pages, and making oral presentations.

• Checklist boxes are provided throughout to call out key information in the preceeding section. These lists range from composing strategies, to figures of speech, to logical fallacies.

• Critical Coverage of Critical Thinking - Students are given tips and encouragement for thinking critically about their writing throughout the text. Critical Thinking boxes prompt students to reassess their writing for clear and logical interpretations and explanations.

• Explains features of standard, written English as conventions that facilitate effective communication, not as arbitrary rules. Spends less time instructing students in grammar jargon and more time showing students how to identify, analyze, and solve problems that cause reader confusion.

• Shows students that good writing must be clear, vital, and stimulating to read.

What do you find most helpful students are working on research?

• Source maps make it easy for students to locate and use information from various sources.
• Full coverage of electronic research methods. This latest edition of The Blair Handbook  includes up-to-date strategies for planning, organizing, and writing research papers from sources found in the library, in the field, and on the Internet.

A balanced author perspective:

A composition teacher with more than 35 years experience teaching writing, Toby Fulwiler highlights the need for writers to gain confidence in their voices and ideas as well as to practice in a variety of formats and conventions. A practicing journalist with more than 25 years of experience writing and editing for newpapers, Alan Hayakawa understands the importance of conventional correctness and appreciates the way different writing situations and new technologies demand different approaches. For this reason, The Blair Handbook devotes time to both the whys and the hows of good writing. Students who know how to analyze and address individual rhetorical situations are more likely to succeed both across the curriculum and in the world beyond college.
