Through the Mist and toward the Light: Grammar for the First Year
College Writer offers a new approach to grammatical concepts to
encourage and improve the grammar proficiency and writing skills
for beginning writers. Far from a traditional handbook, the text
presents innovative, engaging, practical, and accessible approaches
to grammar that is often found difficult to first year college
students. Section 1 of the text builds on the premise that good
sentence structure is based on a student's ability to identify how
each word in a sentence is being used. To that end, the section
offers an in-depth look at the parts of speech and the many rules
surrounding their correct usage. Section 2 fosters writing
proficiency through an analysis of the most often misused
punctuation symbols in the writing of first year students, offering
detailed exercises to promote correct usage. Section 3 walks
students through the common inhibitors to sound sentence structure
and rhythm, and focuses on concepts often found challenging for
multilingual student writers. The final section helps students
transition to the next level of writing proficiency by introducing
them to the intricacies of structural and transformational
diagramming to engage their own sentence structure, build on what
they have learned, and continue to develop their mastery of
grammar. Through the Mist and toward the Light is an ideal and
practical resource for foundational courses in writing and
composition. The text can also be used to support freshmen
orientation or student success courses or programs.
