A Brief Guide to Writing From Readings will appeal to freshman composition instructors as well as instructors across the curriculum who require a writing-from-sources text in their introductory, general education classes. A Brief Guide to Writing From Readings is comprehensive enough to serve as a primary text yet compact enough to serve as a supplement. It teaches students how to read texts critically, quote and paraphrase material, summarize, respond to, critique, and synthesize readings, avoid plagiarism, document essays, and keep a writing journal. At the end of every chapter is a summary chart students can consult as they work on assignments, and at the end of the text is a series of checklists for revising and proofreading. MLA, APA and CBE styles of documentation are covered, including numerous sample reference citations for each stylebook. A Brief Guide to Writing From Readings is a valuable teaching and reference tool that students of many disciplines will find useful for class work and for independent study.
