Riassunto

Writing First teaches the basics of writing and grammar in the context of students' own writing. Along with a comprehensive treatment of the process of writing paragraphs and essays, it helps students develop the fundamental writing skills they need to succeed in college and beyond. By providing students with more help in the areas they most need it -- grammar, ESL, and high-stakes test taking -- the third edition of Writing First better addresses the realities of the developmental writing course.

Su questo libro

L'autore

LAURIE KIRSZNER and STEPHEN MANDELL have taught college and basic writing for more than 25 years. Their first textbook, Basic College Writing, grew out of their experiences in Temple University's ELECT (English Language Enrichment Center at Temple) program, one of the first basic writing programs in the country. Their many subsequent successful collaborations have included Patterns for College Writing, Ninth Edition (Bedford/St. Martin's, 2004), and Foundations First: Sentences and Paragraphs (Bedford/St. Martin's, 2005). Laurie Kirszner coordinates the writing program at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. Stephen Mandell is the founder and former director of Drexel University's basic writing program, where he also teaches composition, literature, and technical and business writing.
