- A systematic approach to using sources introduces research and writing skills gradually, in lessons of progressive difficulty, with 32 exercises and 13 writing assignments so that students can master each skill (such as finding sources) before moving on to the next one (evaluating sources). Separate chapters on single-source and multiple-source essays let students work with the simpler demands of a single source before introducing them to the more complex skills of multiple-source writing.- Covering more than just research, the book provides detailed guidance for each step of the writing process, including brainstorming a topic, formulating a thesis, developing an argument, paraphrasing and quoting, and integrating source material appropriately and smoothly into an essay. To illustrate these steps, 53 reading selections appear throughout the text in exercises and assignments as well as in explanations of writing and research skills.- Extensively revised chapters on electronic research give students updated and more detailed explanations and examples of searching for sources, deciding which ones are worth pursuing, and using computers to take notes and facilitate other stages of the research and writing process.
