From Writing to Composing An Introductory Composition Course for Students of English

From Writing to Composing, Second Edition, is a major revision of this classic ground breaking writing book. Although it retains the unique approach of the first edition - interweaving structured guided writing activities with freer activities that use a multi-drafting approach - the book has been radically transformed. New and updated tasks appear together with many of the popular and original, lively writing activities. All the units are new, and the book has a new, 2-part structure. The first part of the book introduces different genres of writing and the key activity types of the book. The second part teaches how to write paragraphs using different modes of rhetorical organization to describe someone's daily routine, and enumeration to classify something into its different types. Throughout the book, students build a portfolio of their writing and produce projects that they publish in wall displays, a class newspaper, or a class website.Ingram, Beverly is the author of 'From Writing to Composing An Introductory Composition Course for Students of English', published 2005 under ISBN 9780521671361 and ISBN 0521671361.
