Description
Bridge from everyday writing to writing in any situation. College students write regularly in personal and social settings, but they often find it challenging to transition successfully to academic contexts. By building from their everyday writing experience, Writing Situations with MyWritingLab prepares students to analyze, navigate, and write effectively in any situation. Author Sid Dobrin presents a rhetorical situation both nuanced and practical, grounded not only in audience, purpose, and context but also impacted by medium, methodology, and relationships among stakeholders. Writing Situations provides a framework and a process for students to apply to any writing project and any situation. Teaching and Learning Experience This program will provide a better teaching and learning experience for you and your students. Robust resources improve students' writing and allow instructors to track results.

Each project chapter includes five visual features (Road to a Strong Thesis, Side by Side, Mapping Your Situation, Prepare and Respond, and Writing Process Guidelines) that help students analyze, navigate, and respond to diverse writing situations while building an effective writing process A variety of writing assignments accommodate a range of teaching approaches.
