Synopsis

From the Preface: "Writing Today began with a few basic assumptions. First, we believe that students want to learn writing skills that will help them succeed in college and in their careers. Second, students need a writing guide that presents information clearly, simply, and in a way that is easy to reference. Third, writing instructors prefer a teaching tool that is both practical and flexible, allowing them to adapt its content to their own pedagogical approaches and teaching styles. To help students with the kind of writing they do in their college courses and in their lives outside of the classroom, Writing Today provides tools they can use to respond effectively to many different writing situations. This book teaches genres of writing (memoirs, analyses, reports, proposals, etc.) as well as processes for writing (planning, drafting, revising, etc.) Writing Today is an easy-to-use book that fits the way today's students read, learn, and process information."
