This concise, practical workbook, centered on academic reading and writing strategies, is short, simple, and easy to use. Through reading and writing, you will learn how written works are organized for effectiveness and persuasion. This is not a handbook covering the minutia of punctuation, grammar, and spelling. Rather, this is a workbook that will teach you how to read a textbook, short story, or poem and gain understanding of what's being discussed; how to interpret a professor's writing prompt; and how to write an essay or paper that shows your knowledge and sophistication as a writer. You will start improving your reading and writing skills right away by reading the chapters and responding to the writing prompts in the workbook. Filled with insights, tips, and writing activities, Read and Write Like a Professor is a college-level writing course in an easy-to-use workbook format.
