| Summary, etc. |
"The Allyn & Bacon Guide to Writing will help you acquire the critical thinking, writing, and research skills you'll need to do well in your composition course. You will learn key concepts in Part 1, explore specific strategies in Part 2, and practice essential skills in Parts 3 and 4 that will improve your writing practice, help you succeed with your papers, and strengthen skills you'll use in the future.<br/>Writing projects focus on a particular type of assignment and include exploratory activities, in-class work, and guidance on the writing process tailored to a particular genre. In addition, student and pro- fessional papers will help you see how other writers have responded to similar opportunities and chal- lenges. Writing projects range from academic genres (e.g., annotated bibliography or synthesis essay) that will prepare you for your other courses to "real world" genres (e.g., a set of instructions, an argu- ment, or a speech with visual aids) that you'll use on the job or in civic life.<br/>KEY MATERIAL AVAILABLE ONLY IN THIS EDITION<br/>• New "Strategies" boxes detail ways of breaking down large writing assignments into manageable, productive tasks.<br/>• Part 1 has been reorganized to highlight twelve key takeaway concepts, helping you quickly locate essential material and readily understand critical content.<br/>• New annotated "Framework" charts present an at-a-glance summary of the typical structures of many kinds of writing projects to help you better organize the papers you write."-- Back cover. |
