Description and Table of Contents

Description

A coherent reference that covers all the topics student writers come across in a writing course, supporting composition for different purposes and audiences and in a variety of genres and as they collaborate, revise deeply, conduct research, document sources, format their writing, and edit for clarity. Recognising that the best student writers succeed because they practice writing, reading, thinking, and researching on a regular basis, the handbook fosters a culture of practice with how-to instruction for writing tasks, with advice that allows students to pivot among disciplines, and with more print and digital activities than any other college writing resource.
