Synopsis

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

 

Quest:  Reading Critically and Arguing for Change grew out of the author’s experiences as a student, a writer, and a teacher of writing and the belief that writing is absolutely necessary for personal growth and social change.  Quest is a student-centered writing guide.  It SPEAKS TO students in a way other academic argument texts do not.  Students enjoy Quest, and while learning to think more critically and argue more effectively, students grow and improve as writers, thinkers and learners as they move from one chapter to another.

 

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.
