Developed for emerging academic writers, Primary Research and
Writing offers a fresh take on the nature of doing research in the
writing classroom. Encouraging students to write about topics for
which they have a passion or personal connection, this text
emphasizes the importance of primary research in developing writing
skills and abilities. Authors Lynee Lewis Gaillet and Michelle F.
Eble have built a pedagogical approach that makes archival and
primary research interesting, urgent, and relevant to emerging
writers. Students are able to explore ways of analyzing their
findings and presenting their results to their intended readers.
With in-text features to aid students in understanding primary
research and its role in their writing, chapters include special
elements such as: Communities in Context - Profiles of traditional
and digital communities that help students understand the
characteristics of communities and group members Profiles of
Primary Researchers - Spotlights on professionals, giving an
illuminating look into the role primary research plays in
real-world research and writing Student Writing - Examples of
exemplary student writing that demonstrate how research can be
relevant, engaging, and interesting, with annotations. Invention
Exercises - Exercises designed to help students locate primary
investigation within communities that they already understand or
find appealing Writing Exercises - Writing exercises that offer
students practice in exploring communities and investigating
primary materials. Readings - Annotated readings with questions to
guide analysis, pulled from a variety of rich sources, that give
students inspiration for undertaking their own research projects.
This text has a robust companion website that provides resources
for instructors and students, with sample syllabi, chapter
overviews, lecture outlines, sample assignments, and a list of
class resources. Primary Research and Writing is an engaging
textbook developed for students in the beginning stages of their
academic writing careers, and prepares its readers for a lifetime
of research and writing.
