Writing For Life

As a text which presents ideas on how to write more effectively and on how to assemble information to make a case in a research paper, it examines various strategies that work. The assumptions about what works are not without foundation, because they are born out of the author's pedagogical experience. The coverage in Writing for Life here is selective. It does not pretend to teach everything about writing, but it provides a sympathetic approach to helping students grapple with this all-illusive skill they need to truly say they are educated. It is this need to master the discourse features inherent in writing that this text seeks to address.
