Críticas:

'My tutors all use A Writer's Reference as they work with students in all disciplines. It is the only handbook I feel confident about, and it's the one we recommend and refer to all the time.' - Phyllis Benay, Director, Center for Writing, Keene State College

'Why do I still require a handbook? I like everyone having the same materials to work with―a common language for all students to use.' - Maria Ramos, J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College

'The common handbook, A Writer's Reference, is useful as a campus-wide tool. The handbook helps us have conversations about argument, premises, evidence, and authority not only with our students but also with our colleagues.' - Shevaun Donelli O'Connell, Buffalo State College

'I appreciate the instructor support and guidance.' - Sundi Rose-Holt, Columbus State University

'I like that I have been able to customize the book with my own course materials.' - Vicki Hendricks, Broward College

'The integrated media will reinforce the instruction I do in the classroom, engage my students outside of the classroom, and provide additional help with whatever they are having trouble with.' - Christian Horlick, Virginia Commonwealth University

Reseña del editor:
For success in college, no skill is more critical than writing; it’s the very core of a student’s academic experience. Tested and trusted, A Writer’s Reference is an essential tool for students who are strengthening habits and skills that will support them throughout college.
New to this edition:
  • Teaches a process for reading critically: Because reading is the foundation of every college research and writing assignment, the handbook teaches students a practical process for reading traditional and multimodal texts, research sources, their own work, and the work of their peers critically and reflectively.

  • Helps writers understand genre expectations: Five new writing guides support students as they compose common assignments: argument essays, analytical essays, annotated bibliographies, reflective cover letters, and literacy narratives. These guides provide step-by-step guidance and lay a foundation for writing in multiple disciplines.

  • Fosters authority and responsibility in college researchers: Substantially revised chapters teach students to find an entry point in a debate and develop authority as a researcher. New advice on writing a research proposal gives practical help that’s useful across the curriculum. And because some sources are difficult to cite, new how-to boxes address authorship and new types of sources such as course materials and reposted Web content.

  • Introduces multimodal analysis and speech: A new chapter about reading and writing about multimodal texts introduces new genres and practical strategies for analysis. The emphasis on understanding and composing in new genres aligns the book more closely with the goals of writing programs and the 2014 WPA outcomes. New coverage of public speaking helps students adapt a written text for a live audience.

  • Offers new paraphrasing strategies for multilingual/ESL writers: New content includes advice about paraphrasing sources effectively. A new chapter moves students away from the practice of word-by-word substitution and offers strategies for understanding and presenting another writer's meaning.
