具体描述
In Resources for Writers, Betsy Longprovides students with the "resources" needed to become better writers: meaningful skill instruction, extensive practice, a supporting lab manual, and contemporary-themed readings. Teaching writing through a structured, formulaic approach, the author integrates the writing process with the rhetorical modes to move students from paragraph development to the essay. The discourse, exercises, and writing assignments in each chapter are linked by the cultural literacy theme of that chapter to engage students and broaden the context of writing. The grammar section, refined in the third edition, also contains exercises designed to assist students in mastering skills. Practice is abundant as a supplemental Lab Manual (separated from the text in this third edition) offers additional activities for each text chapter, and the newly-integrated MyWritingLab icons direct students to even more skill practice online at www.mywritinglab.com.
