This book tends to cover everything, especially if you teach in part of a writing across the curriculum program. I've used it to get my students thinking about other classes and what they'll have to write in those fields in order to make composition more practical.

Of course, my students feel oh-so clever by pointing out the couple of typos in the text. Sheesh.

Adding 8/2015: I've noticed that the textual analysis section teaches students how to analyze written texts, but all of the example essays analyze "texts," such as the game Angry Birds, the shows The Walking Dead and 30 Rock, and advertisements. Not very helpful...

I had to read this for English Composition 1 class. It's just a normal textbook for English writing. Though it did have some interesting articles in it that we had to read and write about. This was also the textbook used for the second English Composition class. I did not like the fact that much of the second class' reading assignments were repeats of the first.

this is a reference manual from my English 1010 course. It also has a home on my office desk. Very easy to use reference manual, especially when I need to look up something quickly when writing notes and reports or blogging.

Straightforward and helpful, though some of the readings have gotten a bit dated. I'm going to use the 2013 edition for my class this Fall. Straightforward and helpful, though some of the readings have gotten a bit dated. I'm going to use the 2013 edition for my class this Fall. ...more
