The ideal text for the developmental courses where students are weak in their pre-writing and thesis-writing skills, Discovery also includes a handbook for quick grammar/mechanics reference. Student essays, included throughout the text, illustrate the process of writing and provide examples that are approachable to developmental students. Coverage addresses reading, writing, critical thinking and grammar/mechanics. Features: * Discovering Connections sections link world events to personal observations, prompting students to make new connections in their pre-writing. * Discovering the Meaning sections encourage students to read critically. New to this edition: * More student essays in chapters covering rhetorical modes add diversity. * Workbook approach is updated to feel more collegiate: no lines for student responses etc. * Getting It Together chapter follows a student essay from brainstorming to final draft.
