Description

The handbook for today's students, The New Century Handbook provides complete coverage of the writing and research process, from planning through revision, in a friendly, accessible style.

Leading composition scholars and classroom teachers Christine Hult and Tom Huckin bring their special expertise in research, computer use, grammar, and linguistics to this special collaboration. Acknowledging that students write using word processors and use the Internet as an important source for research, the authors created the first college handbook to integrate instructions and advice for using computers throughout coverage of the writing and research processes.

The new edition continues the tradition of excellence, and features the first fully integrated book/Website/CD package designed to help students utilize all of the multimedia learning resources. Packaged inside every student text is a FREE Interactive Edition CD-ROM—a valuable resource and learning tool for students. Throughout the printed text, contextually placed icons indicate where multimedia assets are provided in the e-book and on the Companion Website. The Companion Website provides enhanced coverage of important topic areas, including interactive exercises, helpful information, downloads, and links to useful websites.


Features

  • A FREE Interactive Edition CD-ROM packaged with the book contains the entire book along with contextually placed icons in the margins. When clicked, icons take students to audio clips featuring advice from the authors, videos that further explain and show students how to employ effective writing practices, interactive exercises, and helpful weblinks.
  • Integrates an awareness of computer technology throughout, but unobtrusively. The helpful tips, advice, and step-by-step instructions allow instructors to focus on writing, rather than on technology.

    • Special “Help” boxes offer tips to help students use the computer to improve their writing.

    • Screenshot illustrations demonstrate computer functions and help students visualize how computers can help writing and research processes.

    • Special attention to how word processors can facilitate and streamline the various stages of the composing process.

  • More than 250 special Web icons in the margins of the printed text provide links to supplemental and relevant information, including additional text content, illustrations of the “Help Box” procedures, links to other helpful websites, sample student papers, and more.
  • Unique separate chapters on “Using the Internet for Research” (Ch. 9) and on “Evaluating Electronic and Print Sources” (Ch. 10) provide timely advice.
  • Provides comprehensive coverage of documentation styles with unparalleled attention to the various guidelines for citing electronic sources. Includes current MLA style, as well as recent CMS changes, and APA and CBE styles.
  • Authoritative chapters on writing in the disciplines (Part III) consider the role of technology in the various subject areas.
  • A unique part of the book, “Document Design” (Part IV), offers thorough coverage of basic design principles and graphics, desktop publishing, and designing Web documents.
  • An original chapter for handbooks, “Writing Web Pages” (Ch. 23), offers a complete primer to this increasingly common composition assignment.
  • A chapter on “Email and Electronic Communication” (Ch. 24) shows how students can use this technology to facilitate collaborative processes and offers extensive attention to using e-mail.
  • A four-chapter sequence of ESL topics covers key issues for non-native speakers of English.
  • Includes coverage of building community through online networks, threaded discussion forums, Web class tools, and e-mail.


New To This Edition

  • “Critical Thinking, Reading, and Viewing” (Ch. 2) provides updated and extensive coverage of visual rhetoric, including sample visuals and a discussion of their interpretation, as well as how to read and think critically.
  • The documentation chapters now include additional information on avoiding plagiarism within each disciplinary format. New, separate chapters on MLA format, APA format, and CMS, CBE, and COS formats reflect the latest MLA, APA, and CMS revisions. A significant number of entries have been added to illustrate each format.
  • “For Collaboration” exercises in every chapter facilitate the process of peer review and working in groups.
  • Significantly revised Chapter 1, “Writing in the New Century,” sets the stage for this remarkable new edition. The text now begins with a broad overview of communication in the new century, including a discussion of how computers have changed the process of communication at home, in school, and at the office.
  • A New chapter on “Disciplinary Discourse” (Ch. 16) provides an introduction to the concept of academic discourse, with consideration of dialogue conventions that may be new to students, which leads into separate chapters on Writing in the Humanities, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences.
  • A new chapter on “Oral Presentations Using PowerPoint and Other Tools” (Ch. 26) provides guidelines for preparing an oral presentation, including selecting appropriate graphics, using either traditional or computer-based formats (such as PowerPoint).
  • A new chapter on “Writing Portfolios” (Ch. 28) tells students how to plan and prepare a writing portfolio, including submitting the portfolio either in a paper or electronic version.
  • A new chapter on “Language and Power” (Ch. 46) covers the interaction of language, culture, and identity, as well as how to avoid the use of biased language.
  • “Using Sources and Avoiding Plagiarism” (Ch. 11) provides significantly expanded coverage of plagiarism, with added information on how to appropriately use and cite computer-based sources.
  • “Email and Electronic Communication” (Ch. 24) now includes instant messaging as well as consideration of appropriate levels of formality in electronic communications, and the creation of communities and shared interaction through electronic discussion groups and sharing of documents.
  • An updated chapter on “Word Processing Tools for Improving Sentences” (Ch. 29) now opens Part 6, so students can consider and adopt tools such as grammar and spelling checkers as needed. The expanded chapter features significant coverage of the shortcomings of these computer-based programs.
  • The only fully integrated text/Website/CD package among brief handbooks—the book now features website and CD annotated icons in the margins to indicate where there is extended coverage on the Website and multimedia (audio and video) elements on the CD.
  • The CD includes the links to the Website in its e-book, making them immediately accessible to students in addition to dozens of video and audio clips, interactive exercises, and hotlinked URLs to Web resources.
