The goal of Write It Review is to reinforce the academic reading and writing skills you
learned in Write It. Each section of Write It Review, just as in Write It, helps you develop a
range of writing strategies. As you are guided through the writing process, you learn how
to use each stage to maximize its benefits. Using the strategies this book teaches will help
you strengthen the confidence and understanding you need to write effective academic
essays. As you work through the assignments and exercises in Write It Review, be sure
to complete all the activities, and give special attention to activities devoted to building
reading comprehension and idea development skills. If you have already worked through
Write It, you likely have adjusted some of the stages in the writing process to suit your
own methods and approaches to writing assignments; however, it is important that you
reassess the process you are using. In this way, you will focus on areas that need improvement
and thereby maximize the potential of Write It Review.
As you work through the writing process for each assignment, remember the series of
skills we introduced in Write It that are necessary for producing a successful essay: focused
reading, critical thinking, careful analysis, marshaling of evidence, drafting and editing.
Write It Review’s exercises will guide you through each stage in the production of an essay,
and will encourage you to practice each skill, one stage at a time. As you go through the
writing process step by step, remember that writing is always a recursive activity and when
you begin a paper you may not always begin at step one with your topic and proceed in a
linear way, one step at a time, to proofreading. As you move through the guiding exercises
Write It Review provides, new ideas will come to you. Don’t set these discoveries aside,
but carry them forward into the remaining exercises. As you relate old and new information,
you will explore each assignment’s topic from several angles so that your ideas will
build on one another. In this way the steps, though done in isolation, will come together
in a unified perspective. The organization of this book is intended to help reinforce your
understanding of essay-building as a process not a formula, the stages as necessary steps to
internalize until each becomes an intuitive part of writing itself.
Write It Review’s activities, exercises, and assignments will be familiar to those of
you who have used Write It. The book is organized to guide you through each stage in
the writing process, each unit beginning with a central reading and then moving through
a sequence for essay development, from “Questions to Guide Your Reading,” to “Questions
to Guide Your Writing.” A peer draft review form and a personal assessment form
will help you revise and edit your essay. You will also find class discussion and homework
activities that reinforce grammar, comprehension, and critical thinking skills. Following
the assignment units is a section that contains student essays, and you will be able to read
and evaluate the essays other students have written in response to similar essay topics.
Like Write It, Write It Review is designed to encourage you not just to become a writer
of college essays, but also to become a reader and writer in college. We hope that, as
you become a proficient college writer, and exchange ideas with others in the academic
community, you will both shape and be shaped by that community. Your experiences
are unique to you, and your writing will reflect the knowledge you’ve accumulated from
those experiences as you engage with others in defining the world in which we all live.
Here Is How to Use This Skill-Building Book
Write It Review is presented in three parts.
Part 1: BASIC INFORMATION AND DOCUMENTATION that presents information
and guidance for completing reading and writing assignments in your English
classes. Included in Part 1 are:
• A Step-by-Step Strategy for Reading Thoughtfully
• A Reminder of the Definitions of Plagiarism and Copyright Infringement
• A Review of the Resources in a Handbook
• A Review of the Argument Essay Structure and Two Alternative Structures
• A Strategy for Writing a Timed Essay
• A Review of the Elements of the Conventional Argument Essay.
• A Review of an Introduction in an Argument Essay
• A Review of the Guidelines for Writing a Directed Summary
• Strategies for Developing Your Ideas
• Writing Supporting Paragraphs for Your Thesis Statement
• A Review of Logical Fallacies
• Transitions
• Conclusions
• Strategies for Participating in a Rough Draft Workshop
• A Sample Scoring Rubric
• Finding and Using Arguments in Literature
• Proofreading Your Essay for Mistakes in Grammar, Punctuation, and Mechanics
• Grammar Diagnostic Tests and Self-Assessment Forms
Part 2: EIGHT ASSIGNMENT UNITS that contain a central essay to read and analyze
and a writing assignment to respond to with your own essay. For each of these, the
book will lead you through the writing process as you:
• read for comprehension and learn to recognize and evaluate a writer’s argument.
• develop your own position and supporting evidence.
• organize your ideas into an effective essay structure.
• revise and edit for coherence and clarity.
Preface xvii
• incorporate supplemental readings to expand and broaden the scope and complexity
of your essay response.
• participate in class discussion activities at the end of each supplemental reading
selection.
Part 3: CASE STUDIES that provide student writing examples to highlight strategies
other students have used to construct essays. This section gives you an opportunity to
practice applying criteria from the scoring rubric to evaluate others’ essays. By evaluating
the writing of others, you will become better at evaluating your own writing.
The step-by-step lessons in this skill-building workbook will provide you with a
strong foundation for good writing. The book’s techniques have been widely tested and
proven successful. In a recent survey on our campus, students awarded first place in their
success on an important writing exam to the lessons in this book. We are confident that
this book will work for you, too.

Terms of sale
General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information / Privacy Policy
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (AHA-BUCH GmbH) via the Internet platforms AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions used by you will be objected to
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) If an article is listed by us at AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the offer page at AbeBooks or ZVAB constitutes the binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The goods intended for purchase are stored in the "shopping cart". Via the corresponding button in the navigation bar you can call up the "shopping cart" and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, all order data will be displayed again on the order overview page.
Before sending the order, you have the option of checking all information again, changing it (also via the "back" function of the Internet browser) or cancelling the purchase.
By submitting the order via the "Buy now" button, you declare the acceptance of the offer in a legally binding manner, whereby the contract is concluded.
(4) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of the e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, that spam filters do not prevent it.
§ 3 Right of retention, retention of title
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if it concerns claims from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights exist.
(2) In the case of used goods, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the item, deviating from the statutory regulation. The shortening of the deadline does not apply:
- culpably caused damages attributable to us from injury to life, limb or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item.
(3) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to inform us and the freight forwarder of any complaints as soon as possible. If you do not comply with this, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as this does not withdraw the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the state of the consumer's habitual residence (principle of favourability).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from the existing business relationships with us as well as the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, insofar as you are not a consumer, but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the domicile or habitual residence is not known at the time the action is brought. The right to appeal to the court at another statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
