Synopsis :

For one/two-semester paragraph-to-essay level basic writing courses in Developmental Writing.

This thematic text for basic writers features a unique instructional format that combines the fundamentals of grammar, mechanics, rhetoric, vocabulary, and spelling, with contemporary topics and participatory exercises that require students to get fully involved by creating, changing, rewriting, or correcting. Using an integrated “whole language” approach and continual reinforcement of skills, the text shows respect for students' intelligence, maturity, and interests.

À propos de l?auteur:

The eighth edition of this widely adopted text maintains the authors' proven formula for successful writing-the integration of reading, rhetoric, grammar, spelling, and vocabulary-and includes many refinements and new features to ensure that STEPS IN COMPOSITION remains the best resource available for writing classrooms.

With the addition of descriptive, narrative, example, comparison and contrast, classification, and cause and effect essays, STEPS IN COMPOSITION now covers nine patterns of essay development-making the text more complete than ever.
