Description

Based on the best-selling text, Writing and Reading Across the Curriculum, this brief rhetoric focuses on the key academic writing strategies—summary, critique, synthesis, and analysis.

Responding to the growing interest in academic writing in first-year composition, this rhetoric focuses on several broad strategies that help students interpret and write about the various kinds of academic texts they'll encounter in college, no matter what discipline they study in.

Features

Focus on and coverage of four academic writing strategies: summary, critique, synthesis, and analysis. Reviewers have praised the authors' coverage of these strategies.

Thorough coverage of the writing process and critical reading. This coverage is found in Chapter 2 and throughout the book. The writing process emphasis will be found, for example, in the recursive processes of drafting and revising, and refining one's thesis as one's essay develops.

Student sample documents and essays. Student documents and essays for each of the rhetorical strategies are included. Annotated “drafts” are also included to model the development of these key writing strategies.

Coverage of research and documentation. This includes discussion of research strategies, writing up research, and documentation. Also included is a model for a “critical documented essay”.

Timely, compelling, and challenging readings.

Writing Exercises and Chapter summaries. Based on reviewer comments, these pedagogical elements are consistently found throughout to aid in student learning.
