Download or read book Teaching College Composition written by William Murdick and published by Jain Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Composition directors often have little time to prepare new instructors in methods of teaching writing and to forewarn them of the many daily problems that arise in this challenging work. Teaching College Composition, which can be read in a weekend, goes a long way toward meeting those ends. It provides information on twenty-six topics, from issues of class conduct to methods of critiquing papers to ways of evaluating student work. It also provides approaches to six of the most common writing assignments in first-year composition. Teaching College Composition can also serve as a supplemental text for a teaching of writing course, providing an element of "street knowledge" to the theoretical content.

Download or read book College English Composition written by Nader Elhefnawy and published by Nader Elhefnawy. This book was released on 2019-07-06 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COLLEGE ENGLISH: COMPOSITION is a guide for those who must take a college composition class—and everyone else interested in the ability to write at a college level. In contrast with other books on the subject, it emphasizes thinking and reading skills over rhetorical and stylistic formulas and rules, and boils these down to the very basics. There are no lists and tables of things to memorize, no jargon, no Greek and Latin. Instead this book offers the essentials, spelled out in the clearest way possible, and illustrated with suitable examples, with the whole organized around easy-to-peruse questions and answers like "What is a Thesis?"—the very questions students, and everyone else, need answered if they are to succeed.
Download or read book Fundamental College Composition written by William P. DeFeo and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Fundamentals of College Composition (2nd edition) is a compact, college level writing text that presents the underlying grammatical structures of Standard American English in a format that is understandable without prior formal grammar training. The book's purpose is to improve the clarity and precision of undergraduate writing. College instructors know that far too many undergraduates write poorly. University English departments teach literature, not fundamental writing; university writing departments teach higher level creative-commercial writing, not fundamental writing. Other disciplines must focus on teaching course content, and have precious little time to devote to improving their undergraduate's composition skills"--
Download or read book First Time Up written by Brock Dethier and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "First time up?"—an insider’s friendly question from 1960s counter-culture—perfectly captures the spirit of this book. A short, supportive, practical guide for the first-time college composition instructor, the book is upbeat, wise but friendly, casual but knowledgeable (like the voice that may have introduced you to certain other firsts). With an experiential focus rather than a theoretical one, First Time Up will be a strong addition to the newcomer’s professional library, and a great candidate for the TA practicum reading list. Dethier, author of The Composition Instructor’s Survival Guide and From Dylan to Donne, directly addresses the common headaches, nightmares, and epiphanies of composition teaching—especially the ones that face the new teacher. And since legions of new college composition teachers are either graduate instructors (TAs) or adjuncts without a formal background in composition studies, he assumes these folks as his primary audience. Dethier’s voice is casual, but it conveys concern, humor, experience, and reassurance to the first-timer. He addresses all major areas that graduate instructors or new adjuncts in a writing program are sure to face, from career anxiety to thoughts on grading and keeping good classroom records. Dethier’s own eclecticism is well-represented here, but he reviews with considerable deftness the value of contemporary scholarship to first-time writing instructors—many of whom will be impatient with high theory. Throughout the work, he affirms a humane, confident approach to teaching, along with a true affection for college students and for teachers just learning to deal with them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Composition and Style: A Handbook for College Students A general discussion which, among other things, speaks of the purpose and the method of this book, will be found in the accompanying introduction. Since this is intended chiefly for teachers, it is separate from the rest of the book. The latter is for the student, working preferably under direction, and it contains accounts of the theory of writing and exercises for practice. The more important parts are Chapters V-VII, of Part I, Chapters II-IV of Part II, and Chapters II-V of Part III, largely because they give more opportunity for practice. But they cannot wholly be understood without the other chapters. Several citations, notably those on pages ii6-139, I have introduced without the usual form of reference, deeming it best for students to come to some opinion without knowing the authorship. My indebtedness to the many writers of rhetorics from the days of Aristotle to our own immediate year is manifest Many of these are specifically mentioned in foot-notes, but I should also like especially to name, as books that have been most useful to me, the late Adams Sherman Hill's The Principles of Rhetoric, Professor Barrett Wendell's English Com position, the late Hammond Lamont's English Composition, Professor George P.Baker's The Principles of Argumentation, and Professor Ashley H. Thomdike's The Elements of Rhetoric and Composition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
