  • Authors : Baker, Suzie (2020)

  • Communication is an activity, skill, and art that incorporates lessons learned across a wide spectrum of human knowledge. Perhaps the most time-honored form of communication is storytelling. We’ve told each other stories for ages to help make sense of our world, anticipate the future, and certainly to entertain ourselves. The art of storytelling draws on your understanding of yourself, your message, and how you communicate it to an audience tha...

By understanding the simple rules — the mathematics — of grammar&...

  • Authors : Falik, Adam (-)

  • Obviously, you can write. And in the age of Facebook and smartphones, you might be writing all the time, perhaps more often than speaking. Many students today are awash in text like no other generation before. You may have even performed so well in high school that you’re deemed fully competent in college level writing and are now excused from taking a composition course. So why spend yet more time and attention on wri...

  • Ebooks (Sách điện tử)


  • Authors : Shepley, Nathan (2016)

  • This is a book that asks those of us who teach and study writing, especially college-level writing, to scrutinize how the locations of our work matter. I say locations, plural, to stress that we teach not in an environment that must be understood in a single way, but in environments formed by discursive options and by social, economic, and political negotiations, large and small, to say nothing of material factors bearing on wher...

  • OER000002263-2.pdf.jpg
  • Ebooks (Sách điện tử)


  • Authors : Pope, Adam Rex (2019)

  • This is a textbook about technical writing. But, what is technical writing exactly? There are any number of definitions of what exactly should or should not be technical writing, just like there are any number of definitions of what should or should not be just about anything that people care about. Some definitions are different because they are used by folks doing wildly different things. For example, what I consider&#...

  • Ebooks (Sách điện tử)


  • Authors : Browning, Elizabeth (-)

  • This introduction is designed to exemplify how writers think about and produce text. The guiding features are the following: • Every good piece of writing is an argument. • Everything worth writing and reading begins with a specific question. • Improving skills takes practice, feedback, and re-thinking, redoing, revising.

  • Ebooks (Sách điện tử)


  • Authors : Bazerman, Charles (2012)

  • Representing the forefront of work at this broad-ranging conference, the chapters are a strong indicator of some of the leading edges of current writing research. The chapters selected for their individual merit, nonetheless thematically cluster, as the editors discovered when organizing the table of contents. Instruction and learning in school contexts, from early childhood through higher education, remain central concerns of research, as the&...

  • Authors : Smith, Peter (2016)

  • Chapter 1: Introduction If the capacity for rational speech is the one feature that most distinctively sets us apart from other members of the animal kingdom, then the effective use of language should surely be among our highest individual priorities. Fortunately, most intelligent people do not have to be persuaded about the value of clear and precise communication. The message is more or less self-evident: if we wish to speak...

  • This textbook is an English 102 text that includes a focus on contextualized topics while using rhetoric and approaches to research.
