Resumen:
Tomado de la pasta: "A clear and carefully sequenced presentation of all stages of the writing process - is based on the premise that beginning writers develop confidence
by having many opportunities to express their own ideas, to receive feedback in a nonthreatening environment, and to experience success. Emphasizing the academic applications of the writing
principles introduced, the text features processes and strategies for producing texts and for preparing and polishing them to meet academic writing standards. Suggested readings to accompany
the writing assignments are collected in an Appendix at the end of the book." --
