This hardcover version of the comprehensive McGraw-Hill Handbook
includes foldouts on documentation/sourcing, and new sections
including "Start Smart" to help students know where to begin and
how to navigate the writing situation for all their common
assignments. The Maimon handbooks support student and instructor
success by consistently presenting and using the writing situation
as a framework for beginning, analyzing and navigating any type of
writing. Start Smart offers an easy, step-by-step process map to
navigate three common types of writing assignments. Other new
features support critical thinking and deeper understandings of
common assignments. Its digital program addresses critical
instructor and administrator needs -- with adaptive diagnostic
tools, individualized learning plans, peer review, and outcomes
based assessment. Connect Composition will also fully integrate
into the Blackboard CMS for single sign on and autosync for all
assignment and grade book utilities.
With the 2008 MLA Update edition, "A Writer's Resource, 2/e"
continues to set the bar for contemporary handbooks. Writing and
research have changed dramatically since the first hardcover
handbooks appeared. Today's students don't rely on pens or
typewriters: they use computers to write. They don't just do
research: they find their way through a maze of online information.
They don't just read print: they analyze visuals. They don't just
come to class: they participate in an online learning community.
These changes have put new demands on composition courses. With its
focus on writing in today's environment, integrated coverage of
technology and visual rhetoric, hallmark coverage of writing across
the curriculum, and brief, tabbed format "A Writer's Resource, 2/e"
has been designed to provide today's students with a compact,
easy-to-use resource for writing in college and beyond.
