The Writer's Workplace with Readings: Building College Writing Skills
A teacher has little need to go 'outside' the text to augment instruction."…this is the best text for developmental students. It provides the material that they need to become better writers with better grammar skills….it covers all that the students need and is in an order that is appropriate."The text does an excellent job on the topics presented....The text is very well written and enables me to approach introductory writing and grammar review quite adequately. I also feel the readings are timely and introduce students to the interaction of reading and writing."I have described this text as thorough and detailed with excellent exercises and reading selections that all students can enjoy….The number of exercises for the students, the paragraph topics, and the critical thinking questions are probably the three greatest strengths for me, but it is hard to name only three."…this book is organized well and it provides a strong overview of the writing process and the progression of sentences to essays.
