Description
Conquer the comp course. Designed to support students learning to navigate college and first-year composition at the same time, A Student's Companion to In Conversation helps writers make the most of their handbook and their composition course with more than 65 exercises and dozens of activities: Part 1 covers the transition from high school writing to college writing and includes common college success strategies such as time management. Part 2 covers essay and paragraph development, active reading, audience awareness, peer review, revision, and working with sources. Sixteen graphic organizers for essays and paragraphs help visually-oriented students plan and organize different types of writing. Part 3 includes exercises in rhetorical and research skills such as using topic sentences, avoiding plagiarism, and reading critically. Part 4 includes exercises in sentence-level topics including parallelism, subject/verb agreement, fragments, using commas and quotation marks, and more.
