Writing that Works: A Guide for Tertiary Students (2nd ed.)

DESCRIPTION

Dop 2006 2nd edition, Auckland 2008 reprint 110pp softcover About good writing and how to produce it. The book is intended for all tertiary students – as well as those who are about to begin their tertiary education – and teachers of writing and other subjects. The text is written in a simple and engaging style while being grounded in established theory. The first chapter introduces the theory of writing. In subsequent chapters, the authors systematically discuss the writing process and how to achieve the appropriate style for a variety of writing situations (for example, formal reports, literature reviews, essays, assignments, and web pages). The importance of understanding what readers hope to gain from reading specific types of written text is emphasised, as is the need to reflect critically on your own writing. Throughout, examples of writing by students on topical New Zealand subjects and of students’ commentary on their own writing are used to illustrate important points.
