Learning to write effective paragraphs and essays, master essential sentence skills, and read critically are turning points for writers. Along the way, there are many other important skills to explore and develop -using specific and concrete language to make a point and stick to it, selecting good supporting details to back up that point and create a convincing argument, organizing a paragraph in a way that best fits its purpose, and writing clear, error-free sentences to maximize the effectiveness of the writing. This book will prepare students to tackle many types of writing in college and beyond.

In addition to learning how to choose sources, students are exposed to a new, more in-depth look at the skill of incorporating their sources into a source-based essay and research paper.
