Synopsis

The Complete Writer lives up to its name, providing everything research and writing professors and students need in a textbook, including citation literacy, research skills, writing process, a wide range of documents, and more. Using the cutting-edge Genre Discovery Approach, this book teaches students to guide themselves through the process of writing unfamiliar document types and thereby prepares students to write independently in upper-level classes and the workplace.To aid in teaching Genre Discovery, the authors provide three exacting samples of each document type covered in the book, a rhetorical ysis of each document type, and specific questions to guide students as they study the samples. The Complete Writer covers document types that are traditionally taught in the first year, such as office memos and appellate briefs, as well as document types taught in upper-level and non-traditional first-year curria, including trial briefs, demand letters, and employer blog posts.Furthermore, this book covers an essential skill for all writing classes: giving and receiving feedback. In addition to explaining how to give feedback to and receive feedback from peers, an important skill given the rise of peer-feedback practices in the LRW classroom, The Complete Writer also covers how to receive and implement feedback from professors and workplace superors in order to improve both a partiar document and future documents.
