Description
Because so many first-year writing students lack the basic skills the course demands, reading specialist Kathleen T. McWhorter gives them steady guidance through the challenges they face in academic work. McWhorter’s unique visual approach to learning uses graphic organizers, revision flowcharts, and other visual tools to help students analyze texts and write their own essays. Successful College Writing offers extensive instruction in active and critical reading, practical advice on study and college survival skills, step-by-step strategies for writing and research, detailed coverage of the nine rhetorical patterns of development, and 65 readings that provide strong rhetorical models. McWhorter’s unique attention to varieties of learning styles also helps empower students, allowing them to identify their strengths and learning preferences.
