• 9780130401694: Academic Communities/Disciplinary Conventions von Bonnie Beedles, Michael F. Petracca  € 47,03 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For writing courses with a writing-in-the-disciplines approach.

  Each chapter is organized around a shared content topic, then divided into Science, Social Science and Humanities sections, and then two specific disciplinary units-each of which addresses the chapter's topic from the discipline's perspective. This topical organization enables composition courses to maintain a high level of internal coherence as students learn how different disciplines approach related, rather than disparate, issues. When students read writing from different disciplines addressing related topics, they are better able to see discipline-specific epistemological and rhetorical conventions-and how the two are related. Each unit includes two-to-three readings, critical thinking and writing apparatus for each reading, critical reading and class discussion questions, directed freewrite questions, and four-to-five essay assignments, which span a range of difficulty and are appropriate for assignment sequencing.

  The Allyn & Bacon Teaching Assistant's Handbook: A Guide for Graduate Instructors of Writing and Literature is designed to help new and experienced graduate teaching assistants become more effective teachers, scholars, and members of the profession.

  The Allyn & Bacon Teaching Assistant's Handbook recognizes the unique needs of graduate teaching assistants working in English departments and writing programs. As both graduate students and teachers, many TAs lead a divided life: learning how to balance the demands they face and fill the various roles they play can be difficult if not overwhelming. First-time TAs face the particularly difficult task of learning how to teach while at the same time learning how to succeed as graduate students. Experienced TAs often face the problem of learning how to identify and assume their roles in the profession.

  The Allyn & Bacon Teaching Assistant's Handbook is written with both new and experienced TAs in mind. It addresses the concerns new TAs face and offers advice and guidance on the basics of teaching for the first time, while other advice - including the material on professional development, gaining administrative experience and preparing for the job market - will help more experienced TAs. The Handbook offers practical, time-tested advice that TAs can apply directly to their own classes and lives.

  For undergraduate courses in Diversity and Multiculturalism; also for a Freshman Composition or Argumentative Writing course.

  Reflecting the more personalized and openly contentious environment surrounding pluralism and diversity, this innovative anthology links autobiographical and argumentative writing in case-study fashion in order to explore the pros and cons of issues that arise in everyday life. Consisting of two kinds of writings-essays about individual lives (autobiographies, human-interest stories) and argumentative or analytic essays (often arranged in terms of opposing viewpoints)-it stresses the importance of individual experience and the connection of that vital experience to analysis, generalization and reasoned argument, and helps students learn to develop and ultimately define their own sense of pluralistic culture today.

• 9780205273812: American Values Reader, The von Harvey S. Wiener, Nora Eisenberg  € 43,82 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The American Values Reader engages students in critical thinking, reading, and writing about values and their role in shaping and defining our identity as a people. The book's organization reflects the three broad areas of self-evident truths and unalienable rights identified by our country's founders - Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness - and frames multi-sided ethical and moral conversations presented by some 100 writers and thinkers.

  The American Values Reader does not highlight the political aspect of each reading. Rather, it examines the intrinsic elements of the selections to uncover their explicit and implicit values, with post-reading questions engaging students in timely debate in their writing or in classroom conversation. The approach through multiple perspectives sees the potential in every piece for linking past and present values, so that every selection can mirror today's culture. Believing that universities and colleges have a responsibility to help students address values with an openness of mind and diligence of attitude in order to develop an educated citizenry capable of making reasoned moral choices, The American Values Reader encourages readers to join the values conversation embedded in each selection.

• 9780321172761: Ancient Rhetorics for Contemporary Students von Sharon Crowley, Debra Hawhee  € 73,78 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Ancient Rhetorics for Contemporary Students revives the classical strategies of ancient Greek and Roman rhetoricians and adapts them to the needs of contemporary writers and speakers.

  This is a fresh interpretation of the ancient canons of composing: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery. It shows that rhetoric, as it was practiced and taught by the ancients, was an intrinsic part of daily life and of communal discourse about current events. This book gives special emphasis to classic strategies of invention, devoting separate chapters to stasis theory, common and special topics, formal topics, ethos, pathos, extrinsic proofs, and Aristotelian means of reasoning. The authors' engaging discussion and their many contemporary examples of ancient rhetorical principles present rhetoric as a set of flexible, situational practices.

  Ancient Rhetorics for Contemporary Students revives the classical strategies of ancient Greek and Roman rhetoricians and adapts them to the needs of contemporary writers and speakers.

   

  This is a fresh interpretation of the ancient canons of composing: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery.   It shows that rhetoric, as it was practiced and taught by the ancients, was an intrinsic part of daily life and of communal discourse about current events.  The book presents stasis theory, common and special topics, formal topics, ethos, pathos, extrinsic proofs, and Aristotelian means of reasoning, and it places particular emphasis on the classic balance between principles and practice by offering ample opportunities for students to develop habits of rhetorical thinking and composing. The authors' engaging discussion and their many contemporary examples of ancient rhetorical principles present rhetoric as a set of flexible, situational practices. This practical history draws the most relevant and useful concepts from ancient rhetorics and discusses, updates, and offers them for use in the contemporary composition classroom.

  For courses in creative writing.

   

  A Garden of Forking Paths is an anthology of contemporary literature that covers the full spectrum of genre possibilities while exploring diverse styles, themes, experiences, and forms.  The readings in this text inspire the emergence of innovative creative writing. In a multi-genre creative writing course, an instructor faces the dilemma of assigning several texts in order to offer good examples of writing in each genre. This text solves this problem by presenting large samplings of creative non-fiction, short fiction, poetry, alternative forms, and essays concerning craft.

   

  Story:  Beth Anstandig and Eric Killough, guided by fiction writer, essayist, and poet Robert Creeley's belief that all writing is essentially the act of articulation and that "form is content, content form," brought together as many successful examples of creative ideas and writing styles as possible in a single volume.  They grouped these writings by genre for ease of use so that you can choose how you want to spend your reading time.  From science fiction writer Philip K. Dick to naturalist Charles Bowden, you will find in the garden that each author has labored to articulate at least one of the seemingly infinite possibilities that the creative spirit can bring into being.  Many of the authors in the text have successfully created works of written art using more than one genre.  Beth Anstandig and Eric Killough created this text in hope that these examples will inspire your students to experiment in multiple genres as well.

  For English Composition courses.

   

  The Blair Reader encourages students to contribute to public discussion in the wider world by reading actively as well as critically and responding to the ideas of others.

   

  After more than twenty-five years of teaching composition, the authors have come to see reading and writing as interrelated activities: If students are going to write effectively, they must also read actively and critically. In addition, they see writing as both a private and a public act. As a private act, it enables students to explore their feelings and reactions and to discover their ideas about subjects that are important to them. As a public act, writing enables students to see how their own ideas fit into

  larger discourse communities, where ideas gain meaning and value. The authors have found and strongly believe that students are enriched and engaged when they view the reading and writing they do as a way of participating in ongoing public discussions about ideas that matter to them. From the beginning, the goal in The Blair Reader has always been to encourage students to contribute to these discussions in the wider world by responding to the ideas of others.

  
  
  
• 9780321317421: Body and Culture (A Longman Topics Reader) von Greg Lyons  € 20,28 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Part of the Longman Topics reader series, Body and Culture is not simply about the impact of our society on our physical appearance. Rather, it almost ignores the physicality of the body and, instead, treats it as a medium through which a person can express his or her culture.

   

  This collection of readings explores the ideas and ethics behind the choices made in reacting to and expressing culture. It is also important to understand the consequences of culture's toll on the body. The text includes six chapters, which break up the essays according to the aspect of culture affecting the body. These influences include a wide range such as psychology, media, and dance. Each chapter includes a section entitled 'Topics for Exploration and Writing' that is designed to aid in introducing students to approaching and considering an essay topic.

  "Longman Topics" are brief, attractive readers on a single, complex, but compelling topic. Featuring about 30 full-length selections, these volumes are generally half the size and half the cost of standard composition readers.

  A brief reader for courses in Developmental Writing at the paragraph/essay level or Freshman Composition.

  Respectfully treating developmental students as intelligent, capable students, Breaking Boundaries, a reader for developing writers, provides instruction, readings, and activities that more closely resemble "college-level" work-e.g., longer readings, more varied readings (multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary, multi-genre), specific strategies for becoming stronger readers, direct instruction in the writingprocess, and an array of post-reading writing assignments that are not based solely on personal experiences. Often, there is a significant gap between the work students are asked to do in Basic Writing and what is required of them in Freshman Composition-and, as a result, their successes in developmental writing may still leave them unprepared for baccalaureate-level work. Breaking Boundaries offers an important and significant alternative to typical developmental texts-those that offer only one- to two-paragraph readings and worksheet drills.

  In The Penguin Handbook, Brief Edition , Faigley rethinks the way handbooks present information and ideas with a reference that's tailored for today's visually and technologically oriented students.

  Drawing on student feedback and a wealth of classroom experience to design a handbook that gives students the information they need in a format they will actually use, The Penguin Handbook, Brief Edition, addresses the changing nature of today's students as well as today's writing assignments. This text uses unique, "at-a-glance" documentation pages to help students visually understand how to cite sources, while "Common Errors" boxes for grammar and style help students identify the building blocks necessary for academic writing so that they can successfully employ them in their work. Additional visuals throughout the text help students with everything from how to construct a descriptive paragraph to understanding how visual information can be used in a paper, presentation, or Website.

  The Penguin Handbook, Brief Edition, makes major advances over existing handbooks by broadening the context of communication, including concise, practical discussions of verbal and visual texts as well as detailed coverage of writing in its many forms. While an emphasis on the process of academic writing and research is maintained throughout, the book and its Website also include coverage of non-fiction genres-brochures, magazine articles, and letters of application-that are used more typically outside the classroom. In addition, The Penguin Handbook is the first handbook to combine this coverage with three purposes of writing: reflective, informative, and persuasive writing.

  Throughout, Lester Faigley's expertise in matters relating to technology is consistently evident, including integrated references to the text's comprehensive and meticulously constructed Web site. This site extends the interactive nature of the text by providing self-scoring exercises linked to the "Common Error" boxes, "ESL Worksheets" for non-native speakers, "Writing in the World" projects linked to the writing process chapters, and more. On everything from Internet research and documenting online sources to cutting-edge chapters on writing for the Web and creating visuals for papers and oral presentations, The Brief Penguin Handbook, Brief Edition, ensures that student writers are adequately prepared for anything they are likely to encounter in today's academic environment and beyond.

• 9780205322725: Casting Your Net, A Student's Guide to Research on the Internet von H. Eric Branscomb  € 34,19 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  The first comprehensive guide to conducting academic research on the Internet. KEY TOPICS: The book assumes a certain familiarity with standard research procedures (e.g. library and notetaking skills) and a general computer literacy, but assumes little experience with the Internet. All the major researchable modes of the Internet and their respective search engines are covered, from the early technologies FTP, WAIS, and gopher, which still have usefulness today, to the current favorites, Usenet and the World Wide Web.

  For Introduction to Literature courses.

   

  Throughout her years of instruction in Introduction to Literature courses, Elisabeth Howe has come to learn that teaching students to see such issues as sound and rhythm, imagery and figurative language, voice, the way characters are portrayed, the importance of setting, plot structure - all the elements that make literature 'literary' - changes the way in which they approach their study of literature. Close reading allows students to examine the language and structure of a text, as well as the ideas or feelings it expresses, and to investigate the intricate links between form and content. By opening for them this kind of in-depth analysis, students are compelled to read differently and examine the connection between the ideas expressed and the way in which they are expressed.

  The brief, inexpensive Penguin Academic Edition of College Success Strategies teaches students the skills and strategies that will enable them to be lifelong learners capable of knowing how to approach new and challenging material in college and beyond.

  Although the first priority of College Success Strategies is to help students learn effectively in their college courses, the skills they learn from this text will serve them well in the future in a variety of learning situations. College Success Strategies is designed to engage students in thought about their own learning and the important role they play in the learning process.

  Because effective learning is a complex process, the authors have based College Success Strategies on the idea that there are four key factors that must interact for learning to occur: 1.) The characteristics of the learner (motivation, interest, beliefs, etc); 2.) The tasks that students are asked to do (both the level of thinking required and type of assessment); 3.) The strategies that students must use (previewing, annotation, mapping, etc); and 4.) The characteristics of the texts with which students interact (textbooks, lecture, internet, and other sources of information).

  The Complete Sentence Workout Book develops students' acquisition of skills in grammar, punctuation, and mechanics through an unparalleled assortment of exercise activities and an emphasis on learning these skills in the context of longer pieces of writing.

  The book works to make grammar and punctuation accessible to students. Although traditional terminology is used, activities are focused on an application of grammatical forms rather than the memorization of rules. The book's goal is to make students confident about sentence skills so that they can focus on writing.

  The book is carefully sequenced. Each chapter builds upon skills students master in previous chapters. Beginning with the sentence core, subjects and verbs, students learn to develop their sentence writing abilities through increasingly complex levels. Self-contained chapters can easily be adapted to the needs of individual students. Each chapter progresses in a developmental sequence. Chapter objectives and benefits to help students link the value of grammar to good writing are at the start of each chapter. Sentence exercises following explanatory material help students apply newly learned concepts, and later exercises encourage students to use their own writing and to put grammar concepts in their own words. Chapters conclude with review exercises which provide sentence level work initially and then progress to paragraphs and essays, many of which are by students, for editing and revision.

  Giving preservice teachers the confidence they need to teach reading in today's classrooms, Diane Nettles takes students on a journey of understanding reading as a social endeavor (the whole), of learning to teach the skills children need to be successful readers, and finally, of motivating children to read a lot--the "heart" of learning to read. In this no-nonsense textbook, preservice teachers are reflective as they learn scientifically-based strategies for teaching the "whole," the "parts," and the "heart" of literacy.

• 9780321026910: Craft of Argument with Readings, The von Joseph M. Williams, Gregory G. Colomb, Karen Trace  € 49,46 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Written by the authors of such successful composition titles as Style: Ten Lessons in Clarity and Grace (AWL) and The Craft of Research (Chicago UP), The Craft of Argument with Readings introduces a modified-more acessible, more pragmatic-Toulmin model to help students create incisive arguments.

  Combining the rhetorical coverage of The Craft of Argument with an anthology of readings, this rhetoric/reader gives students insight into writing arguments and then inspires them with an intriguing collection of professional essays. "Cases" in each readings chapter bypass the usual argument issues in favor of more thoughtful topics like collective delusions, risk-taking behavior, and truthfulness and deception.

  This practical text is a guide to three skills: 1) the critical thinking needed to reach a sound conclusion, 2) the imagination to generate the elements of an argument that would support that conclusion, and 3) the ability to plan, draft, and revise a written argument that readers judge to be persuasive. This text is, in fact, the first guide to seamlessly integrate the principles of critical thinking, argumentation, and the writing process by helping students understand how to use these principles of writing to help them think and argue.

• 9780321015860: Critical Inquiries, Readings on Culture and Community von Jacqueline Jones Royster  € 42,75 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Critical Inquiries intends to spark discussion and response with seven focused explorations of cultural themes that provide contexts and occasions for college writers to develop a stance and voice.

  Edited by noted composition scholar Jacqueline Jones Royster, Critical Inquiries, unlike many readers, does not attempt to present a "balanced perspective." Instead, each of the seven major topics-identity, home, nation, immigration, education, health, and technology-is framed by a sequence of readings that disrupt and unsettle conventional thinking. Students are challenged to move beyond simplistic pro-con argumentation to explore connections between personal and public life in their own essays and responses.

  Readings in Critical Inquiries include historical as well as contemporary voices, going beyond traditional essays to include poems, letters, position and policy statements, and literary nonfiction. This multi-genre approach brings issues of language awareness and rhetorical strategy to the forefront, offering students a rich engagement with the deliberate choices made by responsible writers.

• 9780205318018: Curious Reader, The, Exploring Personal and Academic Inquiry von Bruce Ballenger, Michelle Payne  € 38,47 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The Curious Reader is the first composition reader that bridges the gap between personal and academic writing, while introducing students to the unique reading strategies of writers who research.

  Beginning with essays and creative nonfiction articles that most students will be surprised to discover are research-based, chapter by chapter The Curious Reader leads students to see the many connections between all fact-based writing, whether it's a personal essay or an article from a scholarly journal.

  The text also highlights some of the unique reading strategies students should practice when they read as researchers. The Curious Reader makes reading strategies a main topic throughout the text, and devotes an entire chapter to how students might adjust their reading habits when tackling a scholarly article for a research paper. The text features an entirely new way of looking at reading-how to read "ethnographically"-which draws on the basic idea that academic writing is a kind of culture that students must first observe as outsiders, much the way a sociologist studies an urban neighborhood or an anthropologist studies a Central American village.

  Written in a lively, accessible style, The Curious Reader challenges student expectations of what textbooks are like as well. Numerous exercises scattered throughout the book invite students to explore their own angles on the topics presented as well as reflect on what they're learning about reading and research. All of the chapters feature projects and assignments inspired students can pursue, and most chapters include assignments the entire class can pursue for a week or more.

  While The Curious Reader is particularly well suited to the composition course that emphasizes research, it can be successful in nearly any course where instructors want to demonstrate the connections between personal and academic writing.

  
  
  
• 9780205319114: Curious Researcher, The von Bruce Ballenger  € 34,19 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The Curious Researcher offers a fresh approach to research by reminding students that curiosity is still the best reason for uncovering information and ideas.

  Perfect for instructors eager for an alternative to the traditional text, this author provides ample proof that the research process, like the writing process, can be full of rewarding discoveries.

  Using a variety of examples from both professional writers and students, this text shows that good research and lively writing do not have to be mutually exclusive. Students are encouraged to not only develop sound research and analytical skills, but to examine ways to bring their writing to life, even though they are writing with "facts."

  This text is designed to battle procrastination as well. It helps students work week-by-week through the five weeks typically allotted to the research assignment, featuring exercises and assignments that will help students write their papers.

  Though The Curious Researcher stands apart from similar texts because of its motivational qualities, it also features full explanations of the technical aspects of the research paper. MLA citation conventions are given extensive treatment, and APA standards are also explained in the Appendix.

  Intended for advanced reading skills courses, Design in Reading is the only text that promotes critical thinking by focusing on two of the most common difficulties students have in accessing college level material - understanding the author's purpose and recognizing the main idea.

  This integrated approach of idea and purpose thus allows students to know not only what they are reading, but why. With this foundation in place, the students are ready to master higher level thinking skills introduced in the text: recognizing tone, distinguishing fact and opinion, evaluating evidence, and recognizing basic fallacies in reasoning.

  The text integrates the concepts of main idea and organization by identifying a core of main idea types and pattern elements. Students learn that there are different kinds of main ideas and that the kind of idea being formed determines the pattern of development an author chooses. Throughout, students practice recognizing and mapping these idea patterns. Part 1 introduces students to recognizing and working with these patterns in sentences, paragraphs, and short passages. Parts 2 and 3 present eight kinds of main ideas as the controlling ideas for longer passages and full-length articles.

• 9780321102126: Discovering the Many Worlds of Literature, Literature for Composition von Stuart Hirschberg, Terry Hirschberg  € 73,78 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Discovering the Many Worlds of Literature is a new literature for composition text organized by theme, with readings from four genres (essays, short fiction, poems, and dramatic works) by authors from many different countries and cultures.

  "The range, quality, and freshness of this text's readings astonish me. This text has the finest range of readings...that I have seen in 25 years of teaching"-Dr. Will Tomory, Southwestern Michigan College.

  Two introductory chapters on reading and writing about literature lead into seven chapters on the theme of human development, from family and cultural ties through considerations of class, race, and ethnicity, to the spiritual dimension of human life. Each thematic chapter is preceded by a brief introduction to the theme, and each chapter concludes with "Connections," questions that help students to see connections between different works in different genres, and "Filmography," an annotated list of suggested films. Each reading is followed by a set of questions to help students analyze the text, understand the author's techniques, and develop an interpretation of the work. The text emphasizes the development of an effective argument for an interpretation of a literary work, both in the introductory chapters and in "Arguing for an Interpretation" questions at the end of each reading.

  The extraordinary breadth of the reading selections, and the diversity of the authors represented in the text, are unique; students will find some classic works, such as Shakespeare's "Hamlet," along with many less well-known writings from authors around the globe, representing Eastern as well as Western cultures. Students will be challenged to understand the cultural context of the readings, stimulated to provide meaningful analysis and interpretation of the texts, and encouraged to practice and improve their writing.

  The first in a series of two full-color worktexts for the developmental writing market, Discovery focuses on helping students build sentence and paragraph writing skills.

  With its encouraging tone, careful explanations, and abundance of carefully sequenced and incrementally challenging exercise sets, it enables students to view writing as a means of discovering more about themselves and their surroundings.

  The book starts with an overview of the writing process and special attention is given to prewriting and the development of topic and supporting sentences to help students put grammar correctness in the context of writing. Parts 2 through 5 provide lucid and well illustrated explanations of basic sentence elements, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics. Part 6 is a section of student and professional reading selections, which includes an introduction on critical reading and comprehension and contains numerous writing exercises. An appendix provides practical advice for ESL writers studying English grammar and writing.

  In every chapter, Discovery offers a progression of Exploration exercises that begin with comprehension and practice of fundamental concepts (a and b). The next level (c) focuses on invention and the writing of short pieces. Students then proceed to Challenge exercises that call for critical thinking, drafting, and revision. Grammar, mechanics, and punctuation chapters conclude with summary exercises that call upon students to use all the grammar and sentence skills learned in the chapter.

  In addition, four of the text's five parts conclude with Discovering Connections, a set of paragraph writing assignments designed to encourage creativity and critical thinking. Discovering Connections exercises also conclude each chapter in Part 1.

  Distinguishing Words offers a unique alternative to traditional vocabulary texts by approaching vocabulary acquisition through the study of synonym groups, rather than through Greek and Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes.

  By learning new vocabulary through the study of synonym groups, students relate new words to a centrally shared meaning, learn the definition of each individual word in the group, and compare meaning between the words. This approach allows students to distinguish between words to make critical, correct vocabulary choices whenever they speak, read, or write.

  Each chapter presents a list of synonymous nouns, adjectives, and verbs as new words for study. Utilizing lessons, exercises, readings, and discussion and writing questions, Distinguishing Words gives students the tools they need to not only sharpen their vocabularies but also to decipher shades of meaning.

Authors included in this collection write about the personal and political aspects of racial and ethnic identity in a variety of ways including describing experiences of exclusion, satirizing stereotyping, analyzing the sources of alienation, and arguing for changes that will ensure inclusion.

Explanations are concise and "chunked" to be more approachable and appealing for today's readers, and accompanying visuals truly teach - making concepts and processes visible to students.  The ground-breaking layout creates a consistent look and feel that helps students connect with the material, find information, and recognize solutions to writing problems they often don't have names for.

   

  In planning this new kind of handbook, Longman commissioned an in-depth usability study to learn more about how students use handbooks and where they have difficulties.  The results not only informed the handbook's development, they confirmed that The DK Handbook's distinctive presentation is more effective and "useful" than the market-leading handbook. 

   

  In addition to the groundbreaking design, The DK Handbook provides the content that students need.  With more attention to research-particularly online research-than other handbooks, DK gives students a solid foundation in information literacy.  The handbookalso presents grammar and documentation (MLA, APA, CMS and CSE) in new ways that makes the material more accessible, including unique "pattern pages" that help students grasp principles visually. 

   

  With strong attention to the rhetorical situation, a visual presentation of the writing process, and usablity tested grammar, research and documentation coverage, The DK Handbook offers all the standard material expected in a handbook, but presents it in a revolutionary format that will motivate students to use their handbook - and help them become better writers and researchers.

• 9780321096364: English Fundamentals, Form C von Donald W. Emery, John M. Kierzek, Peter Lindblom  € 55,59 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Like its predecessors, this new edition of English Fundamentals offers a solid treatment of grammar that has proven successful in thousands of classrooms.

  Beginning with the basic elements of the sentence, the book presents each topic with clear, detailed explanations and numerous exercises. The first lessons introduce students to the basic system of the language and provide carefully chosen examples of verb connections, basic sentence patterns, and the internal workings of the sentence. Once the foundation is laid, subsequent lessons explore the more complex structures and relationships of the language. The final instructional section surveys college writing; students study the writing process, with special emphasis on techniques of invention, and then learn to apply the process to a wide range of writing assignments typical of college courses. The section closes with coverage of essay tests and test-taking. The examples and exercises throughout the book come from a number of disciplines, including science and business, to accommodate the interests of a wide range of students. The text concludes with a set of twenty progress tests and three appendixes: sentence-combining, diagnostic tests, and an answer key to the Practice Sheets.

  As in previous editions, English Fundamentals comes in three forms, so instructors have the option to cover the same material using different exercises from one year to the next.

  
  
  
• 9780205200252: English Grammar von Kathryn Riley, Frank Parker  € 48,10 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  English Grammar is for advanced undergraduates, graduates, and others who have a professional interest in language and English grammar. The intended audience consists of students who will make their living by analyzing and evaluating other people's language, including those preparing for professions in fields such as English, linguistics, education, communication, speech-language pathology, and ESL.

  The subtitle reflects the fact that there are four distinct approaches to English grammar, each covered in a separate section of the book. Prescriptive grammar emphasizes questions of usage. Descriptive grammar categorizes the parts of speech and sentence types in English. Generative grammar attempts to discover more abstract underlying regularities in syntax. And performance grammar explores the way that sentences and larger texts are actually processed by readers and listeners. English Grammar is designed to explain the history, goals, strengths, and weaknesses of each of these approaches, as well as to introduce readers to the major claims and findings of each one.

  B> English Grammar in Context takes a building block approach by covering words, phrases, clauses, and sentence structure in its first four parts. Sections on punctuation and errors follow for easy reference and flexible use. KEY TOPICS: The book is distinguished by its constant emphasis on how grammar is applied to clear writing. Helpful workbook sections for the reader are always in the context of longer pieces of discourse and show that grammar always functions in a context beyond the sentence. Each chapter begins with a pretest to allow readers to assess their own ability on a particular topic. A progression of increasingly challenging exercises follows, and each chapter concludes with a summary. MARKET: Anyone interested in perfecting their grammar knowledge and usage.

  The English Language: An Owner's Manual is the first text designed to be used in general introductory courses in the English language that is reader friendly, accessible, and fun. Rather than focus on technical linguistics, the book offers a more eclectic set of topics to introduce students to various aspects of language. Its goals are to draw on the daily use of language, especially students' own language; explore the cultural significance of so called "traditional" grammar as a set of tools and terms; and give students a basic understanding of the modern linguistic view of language as a rule governed system. The focus throughout is on language analysis that students should find more relevant: that language is a system of universal qualities, that it is dynamic and always changing, and that studying it pushes us to rethink the assumptions we have about language.

  Essentials of the Essay, Second Edition, teaches the writing of short essays through analytical reading, controlled writing, and model essays.

  The text integrates writing, reading, and grammar throughout, reinforcing the fact that essay writing requires competence in all three areas. Chapters feature short essays by professional writers, instructional essays by the author, and paragraphs and essays of student-level writing - all of which serve as model essays for students. Short essays (between 200 and 700 words) by professional writers deal with thought-provoking topics and serve as an impetus to writing. Instructional essays deal with aspects of how to write (e.g., writing introductions, making transitions) and with grammar (e.g., words often confused, using apostrophes). Exercises for both essay writing and grammar generally consist of paragraphs and essays in which students must first learn to recognize a concept, then alter an example, and finally generate their own samples of the concept. By the end of the text, students will have had practice with over 100 essays from a variety of sources and styles.

  Everyday Arguments combines highly practical and student-oriented argument rhetoric with an anthology of illustrative readings drawn from arguments of everyday life.

  The practical rhetoric section is based upon a single and sensible four-part taxonomy of argument derived from the various purposes of arguments. Students are led step-by-step through the processes of generating, drafting, composing, and revising written arguments in all four categories. Stimulating writing exercises throughout each chapter encourage students to practice stills as they learn them, and to keep earlier skills fresh as they learn new ones.

  The anthology of readings is closely tied to the principles and practices introduced in the rhetoric section. The overarching philosophy of the reading selections (and of the book as a whole) is that written argument - in all its variety - is the most common form of writing and that much can be learned about its practice from the texts we encounter on a daily basis.

• 9780205296170: Expectations, Teaching Writing from the Reader's Perspective von George Gopen  € 55,59 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This instructor resource approaches the teaching of writing by focusing on readers' expectations, explaining the perceptive patterns that readers follow in their interpretive process.

  Examining reader expectations, this text argues that the structural location of a word is often more important than word choice in a reader's interpretation of a piece of writing.

• 9780205200412: From Inquiry to Argument von Linda McMeniman  € 41,68 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  From Inquiry to Argument blends inquiry, research, and argument by interweaving a discussion of argumentation strategies with instruction in critical thinking and research skills and with writing tasks important to research and argument. Most textbooks emphasize either argument (and ignore the need to discover sources and information) or research (and de-emphasize argumentation as a motive for seeking source material). From Inquiry to Argument develops students' abilities in argumentation and research simultaneously. This approach gives students a reason to research - to find ideas and information for their arguments - and also helps them build better arguments by teaching them how to analyze and generate ideas and perform research in primary and secondary sources.

  From Inquiry to Argument teaches the process of researching and constructing an argumentative research paper. It covers academic documentation in both MLA and APA styles, while also addressing informal source reference. Numerous professional readings as well as nine student writing samples expose students to different types of writing and provide a base for primary research. The coverage of argument addresses such related topics as critical thinking, logic and fallacies, and the appeals, and presents Toulmin logic as a touchstone for the discussion of argument.

  Trade-like Grammar Bookhelps students understand how the grammatical moves they make reveal their personality traits and present their persona to their readers. 

   

  The text's rhetorical approach emphasizes the transformative power that grammar choices can have on a writer and helps students develop the personality the wish to portray in their writing.  Writers can use the imperative mood to suggest control, colons to be assertive, parenthesis to keep the conversation real, and even commas to present an organized persona.  By showing students how seemingly small choices can help them manage the impression they make on readers, Trade-like Grammar Book helps students become more deliberate writers. 

   

  Instead of a rules-driven approach comprehensive in scope and exhaustive in examples, Trade-like Grammar Book uses brevity and humor to engage students and offer them a different way to understand grammar.

• 9780321055293: Grounds for Writing von Jeanne Gunner, Doug Sweet  € 38,47 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Through the lenses of four critical frames, Grounds for Writing shows students how texts can be read from different perspectives and how those perspectives can shape their own writing. 

   

      The three chapters that make up Part 1 are devoted to reading and writing critically. These chapters also give basic coverage of critical methods and explain how to analyze texts rhetorically using critical frames.

      Parts 2 to 5 each cover a critical frame-Psychoanalytic (Part 2), Materialist (Part 3), Postcolonial (Part 4), and Semiotic (Part 5).  

  Each Part opens with an  introduction that covers the key concepts and rhetorical issues associated with the frame.  The first chapter in each Part   (Chapters 4, 7, 11, and 15 )  includes  primary source readings--for example in Chapter 4 students read an excerpt from Freud on psychoanalysis, in Chapter 7 they read  excerpts from Karl Marx. To help students see how to apply the critical frames to their own writing, these chapters conclude with a section called  "Applying the Frame: A Sample Drafting Process."  These sections use the film JurassicPark  to  illustrate  how different critical frames pose different ways of seeing a single text and lead to different interpretations.  Students are also shown  how each frame uses different rhetorical approaches.

      The balance of the chapters ( 5-6,  8-10, 12-14, and 16-17) include readings that students analyze from  the point of view of the  critical frame being studied. Every reading is followed by discussion questions and writing assignments end each chapter.  Each Part concludes with writing projects  that ask student to write about  contemporary issues from the perspective  of the critical frame. Assignments are varied and allow students to submit their projects  as conventional essays or in a genre of their choice.

  "I would describe The DK Handbook as visually arresting and a breath of fresh air in the market of composition handbooks.I think this text is remarkably suited to today's generation of visual learners."  -Joel Henderson, ChattanoogaStateTechnical CC

   

  Transforming student and instructor expectations for textbooks,The DK Handbook presents information in newly accessible, scientifically tested, and student-friendly ways. 

   

  Never before seen in the handbook market, The DK Handbook's design is a true marriage of visual and textual content, in which each topic is presented in self-contained, two-page spreads for at-a-glance referencing. Explanations are concise and "chunked" to be more approachable and appealing for today's readers, and accompanying visuals truly teach - making concepts and processes visible to students.  The ground-breaking layout creates a consistent look and feel that helps students connect with the material, find information, and recognize solutions to writing problems they often don't have names for.

   

  In planning this new kind of handbook, Longman commissioned an in-depth usability study to learn more about how students use handbooks and where they have difficulties.  The results not only informed the handbook's development, they confirmed that The DK Handbook's distinctive presentation is more effective and "useful" than the market-leading handbook. 

   

  In addition to the groundbreaking design, The DK Handbook provides the content that students need.  With more attention to research-particularly online research-than other handbooks, DK gives students a solid foundation in information literacy.  The handbookalso presents grammar and documentation (MLA, APA, CMS and CSE) in new ways that makes the material more accessible, including unique "pattern pages" that help students grasp principles visually.

• 9780321385123: Hip Hop Reader (A Longman Topics Reader) von Tim Strode, Tim Wood  € 21,35 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Composition and hip hop may seem unrelated, but the connection isn't hard to make: Hip hop and rap rely on a complex of narrative practices that have clear ties to some of the best American essay writing.  The Hip Hop Reader brings together work by important writers about this cultural phenomenon and provides lively selections that represent a variety of styles and interests.

   

  This unique reader provides an insight into the history, culture, music and lyrics of one of today's most important cultural forms, always looking at these through the lens of composition.  The range of readings included explore hip hop's dexterity and originality-its sensitivity to diction, penchant for puns and other verbal play, and its inherent belief in the power of words to transform reality and empower in the face of sometimes oppressive circumstances.  Reading and talking about hip hop allows instructors to bring issues into the composition classroom that sometimes feel too raw or sensitive to address without a specific cultural or theoretical context.

• 9780321017345: In Context von Ann M. Feldman, Nancy Downs, Ellen McManus  € 41,68 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  In Context is a new thematically-organized reader, with readings that emphasize compelling, distinctive cultural issues and topics.

  In Context has four broad thematic units: Searching for Authenticity, Establishing a Sense of Place, Participating in Civic Conversations, and Adapting to the Changing Economy. Each theme concludes with a case study that asks students to examine a single controversial event by evaluating surrounding documents (newspaper reports, legal briefs, as well as essays). Students then respond with their own synthesis and perspective. What sets In Context apart from other readers is (1) its emphasis on rhetorical issues-students are introduced to four rhetorical concepts: context, genre, language, and consequences, and (2) the fact that it goes beyond critiquing culture, to focus on how societies and individuals use writing and reading to do work, to achieve results. Assignments in the book encourage students to explore different genres - reports, letters to the editor, proposals, as well as essays.

  
  
  
• 9780321233028: In Context, Reading and Writing in Cultural Conversations von Ann M. Feldman, Ellen A. McManus, Nancy Downs  € 55,59 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  In Context is a thematically-organized reader that invites students to use reading and writing to participate in ongoing cultural conversations.

  In Context's units focus on four ongoing conversations that have an impact on events in the world and that affect the way we see ourselves. These units include: what it means to be authentic, how we establish a sense of place, how to get people involved in civic dialogues, and how the increasingly global economy affects us as workers and consumers. The essays, dialogues, editorials, newspaper articles, and other documents included in this book reflect moments in these conversations. Both the readings and the writing assignments encourage students to see the ways in which others use writing to make things happen and ways in which they themselves can use writing to participate in these various local, national, and global conversations.

  What sets In Context apart from other readers is: (1) its thoughtful and sustained attention to rhetorical issues-students are introduced to four rhetorical concepts (situation, genre, language, and consequences) and are asked to use these as both a reader and writer; (2) the fact that students are asked to do more than critique culture, and to focus on how societies and individuals use writing and reading to do work, to affect outcomes, and to achieve results; and 3) the inclusion of assignments that allow students to compose not only analytical essays, but other genres as well-reports, letters to the editor, proposals, and more.

• 9780321388810: International Views von Keith Gumery  € 17,07 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  International Views presents international perceptions of the U.S.'s relationship to the world, as well as views of that relationship from inside the United States, offering opportunities for students to examine the lines of political, ideological, and cultural conflict that can both enrich our international experience and threaten our understanding of America's place in the world.

   

  In the post-9/11 world, we have become aware of massive shifts in feeling toward the United States around the world.  But are these really shifts-or are we only now becoming aware of the root causes of both hostility and admiration that have existed for a long time?  This brief, inexpensive, single-theme reader encourages students to explore how the rest of the world sees America and American culture.  Is the influence of the U.S.A. visible in the lives of people in - for example - Asia, Australia, or Germany?  Is globalization the same thing as Americanization?  Is the expansion of U.S. influence-both practical and cultural-around the globe a bad thing or a good thing?  If the hearts and minds of nations are set against American influence, should they be coerced into accepting it in the cause of furthering democracy and liberty-or left alone to live as they choose?  Do they even have an option to be independent of U.S. influence, and is the terrorism that has become so visible in the last ten years the only practical response that the USA should expect?  This book does not take a stance on this subject, but offers a variety of opinions and ideologies that inform, contradict and intellectually challenge each other.  Each section has a comprehensive introduction, and each individual essay presents details about the author, gives a sense of who the audience for the essay was intended to be, and includes questions for discussion and writing.  Students may be asked to focus on rhetorical strategies, to conduct research about details mentioned in the essay, or to compare and contrast the views in a specific essay with those in other readings from the chapter.

  
  
  
• 9780321126924: Internet Invention, From Literacy to Electracy von Gregory L. Ulmer  € 52,38 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  A "next generation" textbook for online writing and design, Internet Invention supplements existing print and web primers on HTML and graphics production with a program that puts these tools and techniques to work with a purpose.

  Designed as a passage from the more familiar rhetoric of the page to the less familiar one of the screen, this text is a hybrid workbook-reader-theory with chapters divided into the following sub-genres: Studio, Remakes, Lectures, The Ulmer File, and Office. These sections offer a sequence of interconnected Web writing assignments, rhetorical meditations, scholarly discussions, case studies, and pedagogical metacommentary, which together combine to form a truly unique contribution to the body of rhetorical theory and practice in the age of the digital text.

  Ulmer uses the invention of literacy by the Ancient Greeks as a model for the invention of "electracy" (which is to digital media what literacy is to print). Internet Invention brings the students into the process of invention, in every sense of the word. The book takes students through a series of Web assignments and exercises designed to organize their creative imagination, using a virtual consulting agency - "The EmerAgency" - as a vehicle for students to discover the potential for the Web to act as a setting for community problem solving.

• 9780205297153: Introduction to Teaching Composition in an Electronic Environment, An von Eric Hoffman, Carol Scheidenhelm  € 34,19 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  An Introduction to Teaching Composition in an Electronic Environment is designed for instructors who have an "average" knowledge of computers overall and very little training or experience on how they can be used beneficially in the composition classroom. As such, the book focuses on offering practical explanations and specific ideas for lesson plans that can easily be incorporated into class time.

  The text is divided into two parts. The first section explains the basics of the three main computer tools used in composition - word processor, e-mail, and the World Wide Web - and focuses on some basic ways these tools can be implemented for teaching writing. While the material assumes some basic knowledge, major concepts and terminology are always explained and defined fully. The second section addresses more directly the application of technology in the classroom. It includes practical advice on preparing for a course with an electronic component and what to do the first few days of class. This section also includes a series of lesson plans categorized according to pedagogical goals and technological requirements.

  A third supplementary section of this text includes trouble-shooting guides for common problems in the lab, a glossary of computer terms, sample Web pages that teachers can adapt for their courses, a section on Netiquette, and an index of on-line writing and grammar resources on the Web.

  Laughing Matters showcases how a range of contemporary writers including Jon Stewart and David Sedaris craft persuasive arguments, using humor to make their case while entertaining the reader.

   

  Many cultural commentators note that we live in an age of comedy.  Staples of comic rhetoric-irony, sarcasm, and various forms of lampoon and caricature-have become dominant forms of public discourse, readily available through both traditional print forms and the electronic medis that drive public culture.  Contemporary comedy helps define public issues and delivers critical perspectives on courses of action, judgments on the morality and effectiveness of policy decisions, and praise and blame for elected leaders.  Given this cultural moment, a guide to analyzing how comic arguments are made-and to crafting such arguments using the rhetorical strategies particular to comedy-seems timely.

Building on what students already know intuitively about English, it is the first text to combine traditional and generative approaches in one practical synthesis - showing students how to notice patterns in their language, how to describe those patterns in clear and principled ways, how to decide which of their descriptions are best, and how to represent their decisions in the form of rules and diagrams.

• 9780205168972: Literary Conversation, Thinking, Talking, and Writing About Literature von Patsy Callaghan, Ann Dobyns  € 29,91 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Designed for introductory literature courses, Literary Conversation presents critical thinking, reading, and writing strategies designed to elicit successful interpretation of literary works. The text invites students to join widening and concentric circles of conversation, beginning with the interaction of the reader with the voices in the literary work, and expanding to include the contributions of other readers, the dialogues of the disciplinary community, and finally the voices of other experienced readers in published criticism. Within each circle of conversation, students can explore their observations through reading notebooks, through collaborative reading groups, and through essays which ask them to look at a work from a series of progressively complicated positions: students write responses to, analyses of, critical arguments about, and research essays on literary works. Unlike texts organized by genre, literary technique, or theme, Literary Conversation is both a rhetoric of reading and a rhetoric of writing about reading.

  Living Language fulfills the promise of its title by revealing to students the excitement of language study, the constancy of language change, and the impact of language on our everyday lives. Sixty-one reading selections not only provide models and inspiration for writing, but also help students develop their critical reading skills, weigh and analyze data, enlarge their vocabularies, and understand the many ways that language enables humans to communicate with each other.

  The organization of the book leads students from personal, subjective writing to more objective and academic writing. It treats current, popular topics, but always through the lens of language. In addition to readings of varied length, Living Language also includes visuals; up-to-date selections on the media, technology, and the Internet; and interesting details about language change. The text also acknowledges cultural differences among U.S. speakers. Each chapter contains two or more "Living Language" boxes, very brief summaries of news items or interesting language observations. Most of the selections are followed by "Words to Talk About," and all are followed by comprehension and discussion questions. "Workshops" provide a starting point for in-class activities.

  Conscientious, specific, and plentiful pedagogy introduces each issue, follows each reading, and concludes each chapter, continually asking students to break down and compare rhetorical argument strategies in use.  Thoughtful writing prompts build from brief, informal writing assignments toward more comprehensive and formal researched arguments.

  The Longman Anthology of World Literature, Volume F offers a fresh and highly teachable presentation of the varieties of world literature from the 20th century.

  The editors of the anthology have sought to find economical ways to place texts within their cultural contexts, and have selected and grouped our materials in ways intended to foster connections and conversations across the anthology, between eras as well as regions.

  The anthology includes epic, lyric poetry, drama, and prose narrative, with many works in their entirety. Classic major authors are presented together with more recently recovered voices as the editors seek to suggest something of the full literary dialogue of each region and period. Engaging introductions, scholarly annotations, regional maps, pronunciation guides, and illustrations provide a supportive editorial setting. An accompanying Instructor's Manual written by the editors offers practical suggestions for the classroom.

  The Longman Concise Companionprovides students with an easy-to-use, reliable, spiral-bound handbook with exercises -- at an extremely affordable price.

   

  In addition to being a superior value and an outstanding reference for any question a student might have about the writing process, grammar, style, research and documentation, this handbook distinguishes itself through its focus on the reading-writing connection and emphasis on writing for different audiences.

   

  The Longman Concise Companion's distinctive focus on what it means to compose for different audiences instructs students on ways that they can better communicate their ideas to three different communities - academic, public, and workplace.  By teaching students to think rhetorically, the handbook helps them to produce better writing.  The reading-writing connection is most apparent in the book's treatment of grammar.  Grammar is presented not as a set of rules explained using jargon but as a way of making meaning.  Students will learn to call upon their own experiences as readers to help them understand how grammar can communicate meaning clearly or hinder understanding.  The "Read, Recognize, Revise" approach to editing teaches students to see and hear errors in their writing and apply specific suggested strategies to correct these errors.  Over eighty pages of exercises offer ample opportunities to practice these strategies.

  The Longman Teaching Assistant's Handbookis designed to help new and experienced graduate teaching assistants become more effective teachers, scholars, and members of the profession.

   

  As both graduate students and teachers, many TAs lead a divided life: learning how to balance the demands they face and fill the various roles they play can be difficult if not overwhelming. First-time TAs face the particularly difficult task of learning how to teach while at the same time learning how to succeed as graduate students. Experienced TAs often face the problem of learning how to identify and assume their roles in the profession.  The Longman Teaching Assistant's Handbook is written with both new and experienced TAs in mind. It addresses the concerns new TAs face and offers advice and guidance on the basics of teaching for the first time, while other advice - including the material on professional development, gaining administrative experience and preparing for the job market - will help more experienced TAs. The Handbook offers practical, time-tested advice that TAs can apply directly to their own classes and lives.

  This progressive rhetoric provides strategies for inquiry-driven reading and research as well as source-based academic writing and argument.

   

  A Meeting of Minds offers students concrete strategies for analyzing rhetorical situations (the ways writer, subject, purpose, and audience influence the writer's work) and approaching research as a process of extended inquiry (asking good questions and learning through source-based discovery). Students practice summarizing, analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing academic sources and learn to choose effective rhetorical strategies, structures, reasons, and appeals to fit their writing situation.

   

  Visual texts and document design are treated as rhetorical considerations and are linked through discussions of the rhetoric of web pages. Sample student works, as well as professional readings from a variety of sources, appear in every chapter.

   

  Showcasing realistic models of inquiry, the text includes five casebooks of cross-disciplinary readings on provocative issues: "Can We Talk?" on language and gender; "Should We Have a National Language?" on the politics of language; "Why Vote?" on the decline of civic participation in government; "Are We Getting Warmer?" on the science and politics of global warming; and "Are We Too Plugged In?" on the social and cultural impact of digital technologies.

  
  
  
• 9780321092168: Meeting of Minds, A, A Brief Rhetoric for Writers and Readers von Patsy Callaghan, Ann Dobyns  € 52,38 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This inquiry-based rhetoric provides students with a thorough grounding in writing, reading, researching, and visual literacy.

  This progressive guide helps students understand the processes of reading and writing as a dialogue between the writer and the audience-"a meeting of minds." It teaches students how to analyze rhetorical situations-the ways reader, writer, subject and purpose influence the writer's work-and how to choose effective rhetorical strategies, structures, reasons, and appeals to fit the writing situation. While focusing primarily on academic writing, A Meeting of Minds also connects academic ways of understanding to personal writing and writing about community concerns. Research is presented as extended inquiry, rather than as a separate genre. Visual texts and document design are treated as rhetorical considerations and are linked together in discussions of the rhetoric of web pages. Sample student works, as well as professional readings from a variety of sources, appear in every chapter.

  To provide realistic models of inquiry, the text closes with three casebooks of multi-sided readings on provocative issues: "The Vote" on declining voter participation, "English Only" on language policy, and "He said/She said" on gender and communication style. A complete composition resource, A Meeting of Minds offers a rhetoric, readings, and guides to revision and editing-all in one brief paperback.

  Contemporary readings range from essays and articles to blogs, photos, lyrics, editorials, graffiti, advertisements, posters, and more so that students develop their abilities to think critically about the kinds of texts they encounter daily.  Assignment options range from reflections, textual analyses, and researched arguments to documentary films and poster campaigns to give students practice at producing a full range of texts in circulation today.

  The New Century Handbook is a comprehensive handbook and guide to the basics of writing, research, and grammar. Recognizing that the majority of college writers today use word processors and Internet information in conjunction with their composition courses, it is the first college handbook to thoroughly integrate an awareness of and instruction on the benefits of computer technology to the writing and research processes.

  Chapters on the writing not only explain the various stages of creating a paper, but also incorporate instruction on how students can use word processors to create better developed, well-written essays. Likewise, the research section acknowledges students' varying experience with computers and the Internet, so it illustrates how to find and evaluate print and electronic sources to formulate thoughtful and carefully documented research papers. The chapters on grammar and mechanics offer a complete reference guide and include tips on how to work with grammar- and spell-checkers.

  The New Century Handbook (Interactive Edition) is a valuable resource and learning tool for students and brings instruction on writing, research, and grammar to a new and exciting level. The CD-ROM includes all of the pages of the book itself and four key icons to help further students' learning. With a click of the mouse, students can experience the following:

  "Weblink" icon . Go directly to websites to further explore writing, research, style, and grammar issues.

  "Audio" icon . Hear verbal explanations of many of the sentence examples and additional explanation on writing and research points.

  "Video" icon . See students discussing issues related to the writing and research process and an instructor offering guidance on troublesome grammar problems.

  • "Interactive Exercises" icon . Practice grammar lessons through completing both the exercises presented in the book as well as additional exercise sets.

  In addition, all the cross-references in the book are hot and students can jump from one point in the book to its cross-reference through a mouse click. There is also an index of key grammar, writing, research, and computer terms from which students can instantly access instruction on the points they are looking for.

  • Parts IV-VI-Self-contained chapters provide review and extensive practice in grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
  • Part VII-An anthology of student and professional readings with an introduction on critical reading and comprehension. Also includes writing exercises.
  • Appendices-Writing with a word processor and tips for ESL students.

  In every chapter, Odyssey offers a progression of exercises that begin with comprehension and practice of fundamental concepts. Some exercise sets focus on invention and the writing of short pieces. Students can then proceed to exercises that call for critical thinking, drafting, and revision. Grammar, mechanics, and punctuation chapters conclude with summary editing exercises that call upon students to use all the grammar and sentence skills learned in the chapter.

  In addition, many chapters contain a pair of "Discovering Connections" exercises. The first, which falls early in the chapter, is a prewriting assignment with an array of topic possibilities. The second is a drafting and revision exercise based upon the prewriting and calls for peer review.

The last two parts introduce more advanced topics, such as legal, privacy, and censorship issues, and the changing nature of presentations in the digital age.

  A handbook for Freshman Composition courses and other writing courses, including writing-intensive courses in other disciplines.

  The Pocket Reference for Writers gives students a brief, no-nonsense, non-threatening guide to improving their writing abilities. This guide devotes as much time to the whys of writing (the emphasis on rhetoric) as to the hows (grammar, spelling, punctuation), since students who know why they are doing something are more likely to slow down and master it. Pocket Reference presents the process approach to the teaching of writing emphasized in its parent book, The College Writer's Reference, examining the different but overlapping stages of writing—planning, drafting, researching, revising, and editing. Small enough to carry easily in a backpack, the book addresses rhetorical issues of audience, purpose and voice as well as the more technical issues of style, grammar, punctuation, and mechanics, emphasizing the actual choices that writers make rather than arbitrary rules.

  The Pocket Reference for Writers 3e is a brief, inexpensive handbook emphasizing progressive rhetoric, innovative research techniques, and writing-across-the-curriculum strategies.

   

  Toby Fulwiler and Alan Hayakawa's goal in writing this 3rd edition of The Pocket Reference For Writers is simple yet progressive: to make it possible for students to have a highly condensed, inexpensive Writing Across the Curriculum oritented rhetoric / handbook that can be used in any college course. With this in mind, Pocket 3 is organized around the interrelated stages of writing called planning, composing, researching, revising, and editing. It explains and illustrates issues of style, grammar, punctuation usage, and mechanics as matters of choices that depend upon audience, purpose, and situation rather than static and absolute rules. Like the other Fulwiler/Hayakawa handbooks, all the writing is exceptionally clear, jargon-free, and engaging for college writers to read, which make for an ideal classroom companion.

  This tabbed, spiral-bound handbook is written to help students who may not know proper terminology quickly find the information they need.

    

  Thirty years of experience at the Purdue University writing center told Muriel Harris that few students could effectively use their handbook.  A truly useful textbook, she felt, would have ways to help students find the information they were seeking without having to know the terminology, would be clear and easy to understand for all students, and would be written in a student-friendly language and tone to avoid the intimidating formal instructional tone of some handbooks.  These principles became the foundation of Harris's Prentice Hall Reference Guide.

   

  With new material and emphasis on writing for college and career, plagiarism, research, documentation, argument, and thesis development, PHRG 8e continues to make it easy for students to find and understand the information they need.

  The easiest handbook to use.

  Muriel Harris was the director of the Purdue Writing Center where she worked elbow-to-elbow with students and for over twenty-five years.  As she worked with students, she realized that they asked the same questions over and over.  Based on her experience with thousands of students in the writing center, Muriel Harris authored this spiral-bound, tabbed and brief handbook.  Her unique feature, "Compare and Correct," and "Question and Correct," allows students to find what they need to help themselves with their writing, without needing to know the terms of grammar.  Muriel Harris' Prentice Hall Reference Guide is the easiest handbook for students and instructors to use.

  When Muriel Harris was first asked about the tutoring textbooks she used in her Purdue University writing center, she said she didn't use any.  At that time she hadn't found any text that could effectively help her students. When asked what would make a textbook effective, the answer came easily: 30 years of tutoring experience had taught her that a truly useful textbook would have ways to help students find the information they were seeking without having to know the terminology, would be clear and easy to understand for all students, and would be written in a student-friendly language and tone to avoid the intimidating formal instructional tone of some handbooks. Before long, these principles became the foundation of Harris's Prentice Hall Reference Guide, now its 7th edition. With new material and emphasis on writing research papers, visual argument, multimedia, document design, and a visual guide to documentation, PHRG 7e continues to help students find the information they need.

   

  With easy to find information, clarity of instruction, and a student-friendly language and tone, PHRG 7e continues to help students effectively use and understand their handbook.

  For First Year Writing Courses, Critical Thinking Courses and Argumentative Writing Courses

  This cutting-edge writing guide teaches writing arguments, critical thinking and inquiry.  The entire book takes students on a path through the research process (including multimedia analysis), and through the writing process, all presented in the context of inquiry.  Quest is a compelling and effective writing guide that includes many high interest topics for students.

  The Questioning Reader is an innovative, thematic freshman anthology that asserts the primacy of questioning and inquiry as strategies for gaining knowledge.

Each thematic chapter title fixes an essential question for today's world. An introductory chapter, "Reading, Writing, and the Inquiring Mind," guides students through the reading and writing process and lays out questioning strategies as the source for understanding a text and composing one. Also, penetrating pre- and post-reading questions with each selection challenge students and promote critical thinking, reading, and writing.

• 9780205309252: Reading Context, The von Dorothy U. Seyler  € 43,82 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The Reading Context shows students how reading is a three-step process through a clear and easy-to-remember "prepare - read - respond" strategy.

  The book starts where developmental students need to start: with an explanation of the context created by author, work, and reader. It also stresses the importance of thinking about who the writer is, what the author's purpose is, what kind of work students are about to read, and what they expect to gain from it.

  Selections have been chosen to hold student interest while representing the kinds of material they will meet in their college assignments - textbook material from geology to psychology, from advertising to history, from health to economics. Chapters are filled with short pieces for illustration and practice and conclude with two or three longer selections. In each chapter, clear explanations of strategies to improve reading are supported by many exercises.

  The text's eleven chapters form three sections. Chapters 1-4 comprise the "nuts and bolts" strategies for reading and introduce the idea of the reading context and active reading. In chapters 5-8, students examine an author's use of writing strategies as aids to comprehension and develop their own writing-to-learn strategies. Chapters 9-11 provide students with opportunities to read more widely: to study expressive and persuasive writing and explore a variety of works all designed to improve critical thinking skills.

• 9780321085801: Reading from the Inside Out, Increasing Your Comprehension and Enjoyment of College Reading von Deborah Silvey  € 59,87 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Reading from the Inside Out teaches traditional reading skills within the context of thematically arranged readings, using a new focus: the reading process as interaction between the reader and writers.

  This unique focus encourages students to consider their own feelings and ideas about what a writer is saying, so that reading becomes a space for self-discovery as well as for gaining information. The text also fosters metacognitive processes, since students monitor their own thinking as they move from purely personal reactions to more objective analysis.

  This progress comes from learning a sequence of reading strategies-starting with ways of connecting to the writer's ideas, and then moving through a logical but flexible progression for comprehending, interpreting, and analyzing the ideas in a reading. Students are shown how strategies build on one another, so that they incorporate what they've already practiced along with each new strategy. They learn how to combine strategies and how to choose appropriate strategies for a specific reading.

  Each strategy is introduced in a way to find meaning in a complete reading on a theme. This integration of instruction with thematically linked readings increases students' interest and motivation for learning strategies. Instructors are given several choices of readings to assign for practice, with many readings linked to more than one theme. In addition to comprehension questions and vocabulary exercises for each reading, writing activities help students refine their thinking about a reading. Collaborative activities for each reading also help students develop the connection between reading, thinking, talking, and writing.

  For courses in College Reading and Academic Literacy.

  Reading in the Academic Environment provides teacher modeling and guided practice in content-area textbook reading. It teaches comprehension as a task, not as an isolated skill. The lessons help move the student from teacher dependency to independence in reading textbooks. Students will master academic reading on the literal level of comprehension by identifying explicit main ideas and details, following directions, and identifying a sequence. On the inferential level students select relevant information with which to base a conclusion or make a judgment. On the critical/creative level of comprehension (experience-based questions), students will be able to defend their own personal judgment of a written passage as to its truth, accuracy, and worth.

  Reading Our Histories, Understanding Our Cultures: A Sequenced Approach to Thinking, Reading, and Writing is based on the assumption that the life of every person is intimately connected to the life of the culture. This innovative, class-tested anthology translates the best of current work in cultural studies and process approaches to writing into practical sequenced assignments, motivating students to develop essential critical thinking, reading, and writing skills.

  Students are asked to engage in two complementary forms of inquiry consistently throughout the book: "historical analysis" in which they analyze change and continuity over time; and "cultural analysis" in which they explore how and why different perspectives can exist within the same time period.

  This kind of inquiry is meant to engage students' personal interest and, in the process, to reconceptualize what is thought of as "the personal" within larger social contexts. It enables students to move from writing just "opinion" to writing analytically and persuasively about their own perspectives and those of others.

  The readings in each chapter carefully juxtapose older historical primary texts with contemporary texts to give students a sense of the historical antecedents of current debates. Historical and cultural analysis is integrated in assignment sequences at the end of each chapter. Each chapter also gives students opportunities to engage in "fastwriting" assignments linking their personal experiences with the issues about which they are reading.

  In short, Reading Our Histories, Understanding Our Cultures: A Sequenced Approach to Thinking, Reading, and Writing teaches students to trace how a particular issue is woven into the larger cultural and social fabric, and to negotiate among different perspectives from the past and present - to develop a position of their own. This kind of work is where genuine critical inquiry begins.

  The book views reading improvement as an organic process involving the ongoing assimilation of more effective reading habits and the progressive accumulation of new vocabulary and concepts. The book engages students with meaningful content, with practice material being drawn from topics relevant to students' lives and from college disciplines.

KEY TOPICS: Addresses the specific stylistic patterns that characterize most bad writing and gives an eight-step revision method called The Paramedic Method to break those patterns and improve writing.

MARKET: For anyone interested in revising, specifically at the sentence level.

  Lanham argues that the bad writing that seems inescapable in classrooms as well as public communication today results from our attempts to imitate what he calls Official Style–the almost incomprehensible language laden with passive voice, prepositions, impersonal pronouns, and jargon born of the bureaucracy. 

  This brief guide shows writers how to “translate” Official Style into plain, understandable English through the application of a series of simple rules.  With wit and clarity, Lanham shows writers how to remove as much as two-thirds of the excess verbiage with which they too often burden their sentences. 

  Everyone who is willing to listen will come away from this book a better writer.

• 9780321089908: Rhetorical Contexts von Suzanne Webb, Lou Thompson  € 50,24 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This cutting-edge, aims-based reader examines the rhetorical context of each reading selection, exploring the interrelationship between writers, their audience, and their purpose.

  Experienced teachers and authors Suzanne Webb and Lou Ann Thompson provide students with the means to analyze the context of writing, which encompasses the writer's purpose, consideration of the audience, and consideration of the writer's own background and situation.

  Readings include a diverse selection of outstanding essays by authors including Maya Angelou, Edward Abbey, and Richard Selzer; some are grouped around provocative themes, such as whether or not to slaughter one's own meat and the value of having children. "Images" sections in each reading chapter provide photographs, ads, and illustrations grouped around a thought-provoking theme, such as images of Muslim women wearing headscarves. An essay by Camelia Entekhabi-Fard also explores the meaning of the veil for Muslim women.

  Five chapters on reading and writing, including illustrative essays, lay the foundation for the six readings chapters that follow. Questions at the end of each reading stimulate students to analyze the context and language of each reading, and provide specific suggestions for writing. The thought-provoking nature of the readings, and the diversity of the authors represented-from Malcolm X to Camryn Manheim to Dave Barry-ensure that students will connect with the subject matter and receive a strong foundation for their own writing practice.

  Rhetorical Grammar is a writer's grammar - a text that presents grammar as a rhetorical tool, avoiding the do's and don'ts so long associated with the study of grammar. It reveals to student writers the system of grammar that they know subconsciously and encourages them to use that knowledge to understand their choices as writers and the effects of those choices on their readers. Besides providing key strategies for revision, Rhetorical Grammar presents systematic discussions of reader expectation, sentence rhythm and cohesion, subordination and coordination, punctuation, modifiers, diction, and other principles. Studying grammar from this rhetorical point of view defines the study of language as an intellectual exercise designed to open up students' minds to the versatility, beauty, and possibilities of language.

  Based in current genre theory, this rhetoric helps students make more informed rhetorical choices and participate more effectively as writers within academic, workplace and public contexts.

  This new text teaches students how to use genres to assess, understand, and write within different "scenes" or writing situations. Discussions of writing for academic contexts cover writing analysis, argument, and research-based genres. Public and workplace writing is illustrated though discussions of other genres-letters, résumés, proposals, reports. Through specific guided questions, students identify and analyze new genres and use genre knowledge to read and write their way into different situations both in and beyond the college composition course.

  Emphasizing "reader expectations," this composition text provides an insightful guide to writing clearly and effectively.

  Reflecting on the author's decades of experience as an international writing consultant, writer, and instructor, The Sense of Structure teaches writing from the perspective of readers. This text demonstrates that readers have relatively fixed expectations of where certain words or grammatical constructions will appear in a unit of discourse. By bringing these intuitive reading processes to conscious thought, this text provides students with tools for understanding how readers interact with the structure of writing, from punctuation marks to sentences to paragraphs, and how meaning and purpose are communicated through structure.

  The Sixth Edition of Sentence Dynamics empowers students to overcome roadblocks to correct writing. Concise definitions of sentence elements, along with an abundance of examples and exercises, enable students to progressively develop their grammar skills. Starting with simple subject-verb forms, each chapter adds new elements-modifiers, phrases, and clauses. The final chapter on the paragraph explains keeping a journal, generating ideas through clustering diagrams, outlining, and using topic sentences. The text provides positive reinforcement by giving examples of standard usage. Also, editing exercises in the chapters and in the Appendix offer practice in proofreading sentences and paragraphs.

  Instructors can use the three forms of each chapter test in the reproducible materials section of the instructor's manual to assess the student's comprehension. The writing assignments at the conclusion of each chapter and the additional assignments in the Appendix offer instruction and reminders about proofreading and using the dictionary. The revisions expand Sentence Dynamics from a grammar workbook to a sourcebook for English communication skills.

  With SF Writer 2/e the authors did more than offer a revision-they created a new kind of handbook. SF Writer 2/e takes the "writer" in its title seriously.

  From its opening paragraph to its concluding almanac, the handbook examines the writing process today from the perspective of writers, young and old, learning new roles and reaching new audiences. The style of SF Writer is energetic and witty, the advice fresh and contemporary, the design ground-breaking.

  Almost every major element of SF Writer is new or significantly revised, beginning with an organization that removes the barriers between writing and research. While most handbooks put the chapters on research in back of the book, SF Writer locates these essential strategies up front, in Part II: "Thinking and Research." This new arrangement helps writers appreciate better the connection between college research and other essential activities such as "Reading Critically" and "Writing Persuasively," also examined in Part II.

  Equally fresh is Part I: "Working as a Writer," which presents writing as a dynamic activity grounded in practical choices and familiar genres. And because most college assignments still end in a grade, "Working as a Writer" also includes an innovative chapter on "Evaluating Writing." No other handbook in SF Writer's field covers this sensitive, but important topic.

  SF Writer breaks new ground, too, in expanding its coverage of document design and writing for the Web. A full section is now devoted to these subjects, featuring fresh material and rich illustrations. Uniquely, SF Writer treats the design of print and electronic documents as a process, like writing itself. SF Writer embodies these design principals in a volume full of carefully chosen images and photographs-from section dividers that showcase the work of writers to an almanac featuring timelines of notable texts and authors. It's not an accident that SF Writer looks exceptionally fresh and contemporary. In this edition, the media is part of the message.

  Yet SF Writer doesn't forget its responsibilities as a guide to grammar, mechanics, usage, and documentation. Its coverage in these areas is unsurpassed. Yet even here, new themes are sounded. For example, the model MLA paper is by a student teacher wrestling with a state mandate for competency testing. The model APA research paper comes from an online journal that publishes undergraduate research in psychology. So both papers demonstrate that undergraduates today really can do serious work as writers and reach live audiences.

  This brief rhetoric of argument teaches critical reading, informal reasoning, and writing as reasoned inquiry, and now features a mini-anthology of arguments on civic and ethical issues.

  The Shape of Reason emphasizes the enthymeme as the central basis for the invention and structure of arguments. This approach blends classical insights into rhetorical reasoning with contemporary understandings of the composing process as generative and organic, situated within discourse communities. The book helps students understand argument as inquiry, stressing the responsibility that writers have - to their audience and to their own ideas - in structuring arguments that earn their conclusions and in considering opposing arguments.

  In Part I, discrete skill instruction allows students to progress one step at a time. Each skill is introduced with sections headed "Example" and "Explanation." Then the students "Practice" the skill they've learned. These headings provide obvious clues to the structure of the chapter.

  Numerous practices, review and application sets, review tests, and mastery tests in each chapter provide teachers and students with extensive assessment materials. Each chapter concludes with a chapter summary, three to four Applications, six Review Tests, and eight Mastery Tests. All practice materials are formatted for easy grading.

  Ten additional readings in Part II (from both textbook and non-textbook sources) are accompanied by an extensive apparatus, with questions on all of the reading skills (main idea, patterns of organization, vocabulary, supporting details, inferences, and so on) for each individual reading. Fifteen additional combined-skills tests are provided in Part III. Part IV includes an appendix of word parts, along with an introduction to critical reading: purpose and tone, fact and opinion, figurative language, and reading graphic material

  The first in a two-book developmental reading series, Steps emphasizes the idea of reading as a three-step process in a "prepare-read-respond" strategy, stressing the importance of pre-reading - preparing to read.

  This book offers more assistance to students with the pre-reading step than other texts. Steps reinforces the prepare step with pre-reading questions prior to each reading selection. Reading passages cover a broad range of topics that will interest students and be relevant to their college work. Chapters contain numerous short pieces for illustration and practice and move to longer pieces for more sustained reading. However, because the book is designed for the more basic course, the readings are always of a manageable length for students.

  Steps differs from its more advanced companion text, The Reading Context, by providing shorter and simpler explanations of key concepts; by using more visuals to accommodate alternate learning styles; by providing more vocabulary work; by covering reading rates; and by using simpler readings. In addition, Steps offers more help with reading textbook material and provides full chapters on understanding the difference between specific and general statements, understanding implied ideas, reading graphics, and responding to expressive and persuasive writing.

  Strategies for College Writing offers full coverage of the basics of writing essays, paragraphs, and sentences with a focus on preparing students for academic writing and reading assignments.

  The book starts with detailed attention to the writing process at a pace that is comfortable for the developmental student. It emphasizes the importance of the controlling idea, the process of gathering information from both personal experience and other sources, the structure of an essay, and the way in which ideas are arranged and connected. In Part Two, students learn how to use models for each of the patterns of development. The sentence/grammar material is self-contained in Part Three for flexible use by students studying independently or by teachers who might want to focus on a particular topic. Students learn how to construct different types of sentences and how to use appropriate punctuation. Ample exercise material reinforces the instruction. Part Four, Critical Reading Strategies, focuses on the process of reading and relates it to the process of writing and provides students with effective strategies for summarizing, note-taking, and annotating reading material.

• 9780205272532: Strategies for Empirical Research in Writing von Mary Sue MacNealy  € 40,61 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Strategies for Empirical Research in Writing is a particularly accessible approach to both qualitative and quantitative empirical research methods, helping novices appreciate the value of empirical research in writing while easing their fears about the research process.

  This comprehensive text covers research methods ranging from traditional experiments to newer practices such as focus groups, using graphics and real-life examples to clarify concepts. Students and teachers do not need a scientific background to understand the issues involved, and students in the humanities who are often apprehensive about using scientific methods will find this book non-threatening.

  Though Strategies for Empirical Research in Writing is friendly and even humorous in tone, it takes research in writing seriously, advocating rigorous design and implementation of empirical research projects to establish credible findings.

  Aimed at both student and professional researchers, this book introduces students to methods and strategies for research and provides them with enough knowledge to become discerning, confident consumers of research in writing.

  The authors of Strategies for Successful Writing: a Rhetoric, Research Guide, and Reader have strived to achieve the same steadfast goals that have motivated them from the beginning: create a rhetorically-organized writing guide that combines three books into one convenient and flexible teaching tool while offering students an exceptional value. By having at their disposal a comprehensive textbook that offers ample material for a full-year composition course, instructors teaching a one-term course can make various selections from Chapters 1-17, from whatever types of specialized writing suits the needs of their students, and from the appropriate essays in the reader. As well, because the authors believe strongly that an effective composition textbook should address students directly, they've aimed for a conversational yet clear style that invites students into the book, lessens their apprehensions about writing, and provides a model for their own prose. This style complements the authors' strong student-based approach to writing, and together they help create a text that genuinely meets student needs.

  Style combines a concise and clear guide to stylistic revision and a mini-anthology of professional prose stylists.

  Its approach is non-technical and commonsensical, grounding stylistic instruction in what students already know: namely, how to conduct a conversation. Instead of a list of "rules" of style, Style offers three stylistic guidelines - relevance, proportion, and clarity - derived from everyday conversation and based on the fields of pragmatics and speech act theory. Plentiful examples, exercise sets, a glossary of grammatical and linguistic terms, and the mini-anthology support the instruction.

• 9780205728442: The Blair Reader von Laurie G. Kirszner, Stephen R. Mandell  € 63,08 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For English Composition courses.

   

  The Blair Reader encourages students to contribute to public discussion in the wider world by reading actively as well as critically and responding to the ideas of others.

   

  After more than twenty-five years of teaching composition, the authors have come to see reading and writing as interrelated activities: If students are going to write effectively, they must also read actively and critically. In addition, they see writing as both a private and a public act. As a private act, it enables students to explore their feelings and reactions and to discover their ideas about subjects that are important to them. As a public act, writing enables students to see how their own ideas fit into

  larger discourse communities, where ideas gain meaning and value. The authors have found and strongly believe that students are enriched and engaged when they view the reading and writing they do as a way of participating in ongoing public discussions about ideas that matter to them. From the beginning, the goal in The Blair Reader has always been to encourage students to contribute to these discussions in the wider world by responding to the ideas of others.

  This rhetoric begins with the question "What is Literacy?" and invites students to think and write about literacy as a field of study.  

   

  The study of how people become literate, the role of literacy in society, and what forms literacy takes is important in many disciplines such as English, Rhetoric, Education, Sociology, and Anthropology.  In The Elements of Literacy, students are specifically asked to consider five aspects or "sites" of literacy -- the mind (cognitive studies), culture (doing ethnographic research), class (the effects of social class on literacy practices), the workplace, and digital/multimodal literacies.  As part of the Elements Series, this brief rhetoric offers substantial value at an affordable price.

• 9780321355324: Thematic Reader von James C. McDonald  € 45,96 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

   

  An innovative composition of rhetoric and readings in a zine format, The Reader urges students to ask questions as they read, write, and research about classic topics and contemporary perspectives presented in a wide range of genres.

   

  The Reader encourages students to explore significant topics that impact their lives and have shaped the wider culture around them.  Classic, timeless readings underscore the staying power of each topic (including identity; marriage and family; faith and religion; language; education; work; wealth and property; popular culture; and war, terrorism, and protest) but are complicated by current issues, contemporary perspectives, and varied genres that offer new opportunities for critique and exploration. 

   

  The Reader  draws on research that connects reading and writing in order to help students practice literacy strategies that broaden and strengthen their reading, writing, and researching skills.  Three rhetoric chapters in Part 1 explain how the problem-posing, problem-solving aspects of college-level inquiry require that students engage texts and the research that informs them using a process of thoughtful questioning-and that students bring this questioning methodology to their own processes of inventing, researching, drafting, and revising.

Like the readings, the instruction and writing assignments equip students with the reading, writing, and critical thinking skills crucial to success in college and beyond.

  What do your students want in a textbook?

   

  Your life's work is centered on connecting to your students and preparing them for productive futures. Pamela Arlov created the Wordsmith series to help you connect with your students. We asked professors what they thought their students would want in a textbook. Here's what we heard and how Wordsmith addresses today's students:

   

  1)       Students find textbooks dry and tedious. Arlov includes engaging grammar openers, plenty of visuals, and has a writing style that is second to none!

   

  2)       Students find textbooks irrelevant to their lives. Arlov's combination of the rhetorical modes is realistic and models real life writing. She has also added "Real Writing" examples in the modes chapters to make Wordsmith even more relevant to students' lives.

   

  3)       Students become frustrated if the entire text is not used in class. Wordsmith is 100 pages briefer than similar texts on the market and an affordable option. This concise approach also does not overwhelm students with too much information. Wordsmith provides students with just the right balance of instruction and practice!

   

  TheWordsmith series is your value-packed option that students will appreciate while mastering key writing and grammar skills.

  This cultural studies reader directly engages the process of reading and writing about the "texts" one sees in everyday life. The semiotic approach focuses on the relationship between reading traditional works--such as essays and poems--and other less-traditional ones--such as movies, technology, race, ethnicity, television and public space. More importantly, the book teaches students the usefulness of learning to read actively their surroundings.

• 9780205275601: Writer's Handbook from A to Z, A von Donna Gorrell  € 38,47 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This brief reference handbook organizes its grammar contents by the letters of the alphabet to facilitate reference for students, many of whom may not understand the organizational logic of traditionally arranged handbooks. The alphabetical section, the main portion of the handbook, responds to questions that ordinarily send students to handbooks: questions of grammatical usage (sentence and clause types, uses of prepositional phrases, descriptions of verbs and how they are used), punctuation (listed by type of mark, such as comma or hyphen), common sentence errors (including lack of subject-verb agreement, faulty pronoun reference, and shifts), and style (such as idioms, nonsexist language, and emphasis). In addition, all items of diction ordinarily found in a glossary are included in the alphabetical list, set in italic type to differentiate them from other entries. The discussions are nonprescriptive, concise, and oriented toward college writing. Entries are illustrated with sample sentences.

  The text also provides coverage of rhetorical topics contained in other handbooks. Separate sections on the writing process, the research paper, and specialized writing assignments (essay exams, summaries, etc.) are designed to be used in the classroom or for reference.

  Message:  Writing about Literature serves as a hands-on guide for writing about literature, thus justifying the integration of literature and composition.  The reading of literature encourages students to think, and the use of literary topics gives instructors a viable way to combine writing and literary study.

  Story:  When Ed Roberts first wrote Writing about Literature many years ago, he was responding to a direct need in his classroom.  He realized that there was a direct connection between the way he made his assignments and the quality of student work he received.  The more he described to his students what he wanted, and the longer he explained things, the better the final essays turned out to be. That's when he started to write and hand out directions, thus saving him valuable classroom time. He tried and tested each assignment in a number of separate classes, and he has made innumerable changes and improvements based on both student questions and student writing.  To this day, each new edition is revised and tweaked based on professors' needs.

  Useful in all undergraduate and graduate chemistry courses.

  • One of the current challenges facing science educators is that of student writing skills. There is a widespread (and correct) impression that science students cannot write and that they need to learn how if they are to succeed as professionals.
  • Writing-across-the-curriculum programs, offered at a number of institutions, are designed to improve students' rhetorical and writing skills by requiring written coursework in all or most courses (including courses that have traditionally been more quantitative, like chemistry and physics).
  • Designed exclusively for Instructors, this book discusses issues surrounding the implementation of writing-across-the-curriculum programs in physical science, particularly chemistry. For those who are considering or already offering such programs, this book is a rich resource of clear, practical, step-by-step suggestions and other advice.

  Writing and Community Action: A Service-Learning Rhetoric and Reader encourages inquiry into community and social action issues, supports community-based research, and shepherds students through a range of service-learning writing projects.

  Several chapters offer pragmatic advice for crafting personal, reflective, and analytical essays, while service-learning chapters present experience-tested strategies for doing collaborative writing projects at nonprofit agencies, conducting research on pressing social problems, writing proposals that respond to campus and community concerns, and composing oral histories. The assignments help students to see themselves as writers whose work really matters. Provocative readings spark critical reflection on community service and a range of social concerns (including economic justice, literacy, education, homelessness, race, and identity). Focusing on invention, audience analysis, and the social purposes of writing, Writing and Community Action encourages students to adopt a rhetorical frame of mind.

  Hopeful in tone, this book makes clear the ways that writing can serve as action in both academic and community contexts.

• 9780205283101: Writing as Action, Composing in the University and Beyond von Kay Halasek, Roger Cherry  € 25,63 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Writing as Action , a class-tested first-year rhetoric, helps students understand and meet the rhetorical demands of writing in both academic and non-academic settings.

  In both organization and content, Writing as Action foregrounds the rhetorical situation: writer, reader, subject, and context. It recognizes the writer as thoroughly social, and its assignments invite students to examine how social institutions define, promote, or constrain their writing as students, employees, and citizens. Assignments also encourage students to reflect on their own beliefs and to explore their different voices in many rhetorical contexts. This rhetoric shows how various forms of writing are privileged in different cultural scenes and, in particular, how academic discourse is constructed.

MARKET: For anyone interested in gaining a strong personal understanding of writing, reading and the world around them.
  
  
• 9780205198184: Writing Choices von Andrew J. Hoffman  € 47,03 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This developmental paragraph-to-essay text seeks to empower student writers by showing them that writing is a series of choices and that all aspects of the writing process are within their control as writers. As students learn to make effective writing choices, they will produce more effective writing.

  Writing Choices is also designed to teach students to be aware of the writing process while at the same time teaching them the traditional structures of the essay, the rhetorical modes, and the fundamentals of English grammar. All stages of the writing process - from prewriting to revision - are introduced as the book first teaches the rhetorical modes at the level of the paragraph and then shows how to use and combine these modes at the essay level. Grammar and punctuation concerns are addressed in each chapter as well as in an in-depth section at the end of the text.

  Frequent examples - both student and professional - illustrate important points so that students can see how the instruction applies to the kinds of writing they actually do. At least one major writing assignment is included per chapter, as well as journal and computer exercises.

  
  
  
• 9780205291212: Writing Choices, Shaping Contexts for Critical Readers von Kathleen Bell  € 38,47 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Writing Choices is a composition reader that recognizes that writing instructors and writing students read in different ways.

  While students read for content comprehension and focus on what is presented, instructors often focus on how the writing itself conveys the writer's ideas -the how and the why of the content presentation.

  The book is divided into two parts. The first part shows students how the choices that writers make help convey their ideas to an audience. The second part organizes readings in seven thematic clusters and guides students in understanding how the interaction between readers and writers is established and how to use questions to make strategic choices in their own writing.

• 9780321143105: Writing Conventions von Min-Zhan Lu, Bruce Horner  € 41,68 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Writing Conventionsteaches the fundamentals of writing by inviting students to reflect on their own experiences as writers and to explore new strategies for a variety of academic writing projects.

   

  Writing Conventions offers a roadmap for instructors who wish to teach through inquiry rather than rote. It begins with the assumption that many students, especially under-prepared first-year students, are limited by a perception that there is one "right" way to write in college. These students are frustrated and intimidated when confronted with writing assignments that expect them already to have mastered critical reading and thinking skills like textual analysis, synthesis, and argumentation. Writing Conventions responds to these frustrations directly. It speaks to students in their own terms and invites them to reflect on and draw from their own experiences as writers as they try out new strategies. This approach helps students develop flexibility as writers by acknowledging that each new writing situation calls for different strategies, challenging the idea that there is only one route to take through any writing project.  

   

  Each chapter begins with a set of questions and explores the meanings of a term linked to a specific step in the writing process: How should I begin? How do I get unstuck? (Process); Why can't I see what others see in the text? (Reading); What form should my writing take? (Genre); What's the right word? (Vocabulary); Who am I writing to? (Audience); What am I supposed to be doing?  What's the point?  (Purpose); Why can't I see the mistakes my teacher does in my writing? (Error).  Each chapter then leads students through a reflective exploration of what prompts these concerns in different occasions, the uses and limitations of conventional ways to address them, and alternative strategies writers might take in specific academic contexts.
  
  

  
  
  
• 9780321078650: Writing Cornerstones, Paragraphs in Context von Leslie Dupont  € 32,05 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Writing Cornerstones -- the first in a new brief rhetoric series from Longman-- is a pupose-oriented mini-rhetoric for the paragraph-level developmental writing course.

  Writing Cornerstones is intended to be a realistic introduction to and review of the paragraph. It helps writers deal with fears and blocks around writing and reading, making the various parts of the writing process accessible to all of them.

  Each of the ten chapters is divided into two parts. "What's the Point?" is the rhetoric section, filled with examples and writing instruction. "Applications" is the second part of each chapter, and each one helps writers immediately apply what has been discussed in the preceding pages and prepares them to write in a variety of contexts outside an academic setting.

  Writing for Real is a practical, process-oriented guide for students engaged in service-learning projects that involve research and writing.

  This text compares and contrasts the kinds of assignments, research, and writing students encounter in academic contexts with those they find in community-based contexts. Concrete strategies help students work 1) to understand the fundamental similarities and differences between writing in schools and writing in the community; 2) apply academic research and writing skills to the purposes inherent in community-based writing; and 3) discover how community-based projects can inform, enrich, and extend their academic knowledge, research, and writing skills.

  Writing for Real encourages and supports the work of students and teachers as they undertake community based-writing. This book is for students in writing-intensive classes with a service-learning component and for students who will write about their service learning.

• 9780205271597: Writing for Your Portfolio von C. Beth Burch  € 38,47 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Writing for Your Portfolio is the only rhetoric for college writers that presents portfolio pedagogy as the logical conclusion of a writing process. Its genre-based approach includes chapters emphasizing the memoir, advisory essay, profile, study of place, analytical essay (including literary analysis), editorial, and position paper as possible components of a portfolio. The portmanteau sections at the end of each chapter provide many examples of both student and professional writing, illustrating various genres, perspectives, and levels of accomplishment.

  Writing for Your Portfolio provides a structure for learning and teaching writing but is also flexible enough to allow students and instructors to choose what they want to write and read about, making the writing course their own. In moving from expressive to analytical writing, this book reinforces the personal voice while encouraging that it be heard by wider audiences and in increasingly varied social contexts. It therefore prepares students for general competence in writing, both personal and public, including academic writing.

• 9780321094209: Writing in Depth von Robert A. Schwegler, Nancy Newman Schwegler, Robin  € 42,75 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  This new brief, thematic reader helps students add depth and interest to their writing by showing them how to "transend" the personal essay to produce more thoughtful, scholarly papers.

  The readings in each chapter move from personal to professional to academic essays, engaging students in deeper levels of inquiry and encouraging their own writing of argumentative, and documented essays. Centered around compelling contemporary themes, each chapter begins with works drawn from popular magazines like Glamour, Harpers, and online publications such as Salon followed by selections drawn from sources like Discover and Scientific American that provide more detailed information, alternate perspectives, and research. The final reading in each chapter comes from scholarly or near-scholarly writing that provides direction for student research. Visuals in each chapter allow students to analyze the persuasive power of images and their role in supporting and directing contemporary culture.

• 9780205173730: Writing in the Workplace von Jo Allen  € 59,87 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  This text sets writing in a workplace context and deals with the common concerns of both technical and business writing. It is addressed to those whose primary job responsibility will not be writing, but who must write on a regular basis in order to succeed in the workplace. It offers a practical, real world approach to writing, in print and electronic formats, while integrating a concern for the important social and political issues that help shape workplace writing.

  Writing in the Workplace combines both a product and a process approach for those instructors who want their students to understand both the routine realities and the special sensitivities of the workplace and the writing that sustains it. Students are given clear advice about writing while being shown annotated drafts of documents and their revisions in order to help them understand the kinds of writing options available and the results of those options.

  The forms of workplace writing are presented in a context of actual workplace audiences, occasions, and collaborative settings. Planning and researching are emphasized as a prelude to instruction on the basic ways to structure, draft, revise, incorporate graphics, and create effective layouts for workplace documents. In addition, electronic formats and tools are treated in all writing contexts. Real world sample documents illustrate the types of writing discussed, and numerous practice opportunities are provided through in-chapter and end-of chapter exercises.

While absorbing these writing skills, students are given specific guidance for making oral activities (i.e., peer work, interviewing) more successfully a part of their writing process and for designing visual elements to enhance their written communication.

• 9780205198689: Writing of Business, The von Robert P. Inkster, Judith M. Kilborn  € 62,01 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The Writing of Business sees writing as an essential tool for creating personal and organizational strategies for managing an increasingly complex workplace. To help students use their writing to attain these goals, the authors have employed a powerful heuristic: GRACE. GRACE represents five essential kinds of generative questions - Goals, Readers, Arguments, Conventions, and Expression - for analyzing a writing situation and generating specific questions leading to effective written documents.

  Grounded in rhetoric, The Writing of Business contextualizes traditional sentence and paragraph conventions within the realities of the business world, such as globalization, outsourcing, and constantly changing technology. A business writing text that is reader-friendly in both content and voice, The Writing of Business equips students for a radically changed workplace. This book presents a vision of writing as an activity that is central and essential to doing business in the 21st Century.

  For courses in Developmental Writing at the paragraph, or paragraph to short essay level.

  This innovative, confidence-building text/workbook is based on the assumption that students can use their verbal and oral skills to develop better writing skills. It presents writing not as a totally new discipline, but merely as a more logical and formal application of an expertise students already have-talking. A multitude of exercises, assignments, and writing suggestions give students the practice to develop their writing, editing, and revising skills while building an understanding of basic grammar.

• 9780205195756: Writing the Information Superhighway von William Condon, Wayne Butler  € 44,89 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Writing the Information Superhighway is the first text intended for composition courses that shows students how to read and write using the modes and resources available on the Internet. The text is designed to acquaint students with the wide variety of information available via computer networks, with the tools for accessing that information, with the means for searching and selecting, as well as with the traditional ways of putting that information to use in serving the writer's purpose and in addressing the writer's audience.

  The book focuses on activities that predominate in cyberspace - manipulating text, communicating one on one, communicating in groups, finding and using resources, and constructing texts online. The overall movement of the book involves students and teachers in an exploration of academic literacies and invites them to consider how those literacies change as the technology of the classroom changes and students begin working online. Students are encouraged to use online resources and are involved in increasingly complex opportunities to write about what they are learning as they develop cyber-literacy.

  The book employs numerous writing to learn, narrative, analysis, and argumentation writing projects that lead students through the various stages of the writing process - invention, drafting, peer editing, and electronic publication. The writing projects, embedded into a collaborative learning context, help students learn together not only about the tools of the Internet and how to use those tools as writers, but also as a way to build a learning community, to develop criteria for successful writing (both in traditional and electronic modes), and to explore the social, political, legal, and economic issues particular to Cyberspace. A chapter on writing in the disciplines offers suggestions and activities for using the Internet to write across the curriculum.

  With a clear and easy-to-read presentation students want, visual instruction students prefer, and pedagogical support students need, Writing Today is a practical and useful guide to writing for college and beyond.

   

  Students need to learn to write successfully for their college courses, but they also want to learn how to transfer their writing skills outside of college and in their careers.  By teaching kinds of writing (analyses, reports, proposals, etc.), strategies for writing (narration, comparison, argumentation, etc.), and processes for writing (planning, drafting, revising, etc.), Writing Today provides students with tools they can mix and match as needed to respond effectively to many writing situations.

   

  While Writing Today offers comprehensive and detailed instruction that students need, the highly-praised, interactive writing style is written for the way today's students read and learn: instruction is succinct; key concepts are immediately defined and reinforced; paragraphs are short and supported by instructional visuals.  This interactive presentation helps students ask questions of the text, raid it for answers, and access knowledge when they are ready for it, putting students in control of their learning. 

   

  Two versions are available at value prices--a brief version with handbook and a comprehensive version with an anthology of readings and handbook--and offer instructors maximum flexibility in course design.

  Writing With Confidence, a value-priced developmental writing book, provides essential instruction and practice in basic writing skills at the sentence and paragraph level. KEY TOPICS: The first developmental book to include incorporate high-interest, connected discourse subject matter in its exercises, Writing with Confidence retains and expands on this feature. Most chapters pursue a theme throughout the exercises-the dreams and premonitions surrounding the death of Abraham Lincoln; animal facts and oddities; the gustatory achievements of Diamond Jim Brady, the world's greatest eater; the voyage of the Kon-Tiki; and so on. The text's six-unit structure includes thirty short chapters on the writing process, paragraph organization and development, the shape of the essay, all the rhetorical modes, and all the sentence skills. The writing chapters are fully process oriented, showing the development of a paragraph in six steps, from planning and outlining through drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading. Optional collaborative activities are provided in the margins of each chapter. This focus on writing is balanced with equal attention to sentence skills, not only for native speakers of English who need help, but for non-English-dominant speakers as well. ESL boxes provide help for readers whose first language is not English, as do the two final chapters of the book, which address troublesome matters such as verb phrases, word order, articles, and prepositions. The reading-writing connection throughout the book has been expanded, with sixteen additional readings in the last unit of the book. And the popular "Blueprints for Writing" found in the rhetorical chapters have been carried into unit ending "Blueprints for Success," in which the most important concepts and practices are summarized in graphs and charts. MARKET: For those seeking to develop their writing skills at the sentence to paragraph level.
  
  
• 9780321026743: Writing with Consequence, What Writing Does in the Disciplines von Howard Tinberg  € 37,40 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  This brief, cross-disciplinary rhetoric teaches students the importance of writing in college and beyond, using a unique conceptual framework that the author calls the "six ways of knowing."

  This writing guide enables students to write meaningfully not only in academic forms such as essays or lab reports, but in forms used outside the classroom such as brochures and oral histories. The text's underlying premise is that students' writing acquires consequence not by mastering a set of skills but by exploring diverse ways of knowing and thinking about their subject.

  Each chapter examines a different academic discipline and its way of considering and writing about the world via interviews with academics and case studies of student research writing projects in that field. These writing and research strategies are then applied to writing outside the classroom in more public arenas using real world genres.
