emTrade-like Grammar Book/emhelps students understand how the grammatical moves they make reveal their personality traits and present their persona to their readers. The text's rhetorical approach emphasizes the transformative power that grammar choices can have on a writer and helps students develop the personality the wish to portray in their writing. Writers can use the imperative mood to suggest control, colons to be assertive, parenthesis to keep the conversation real, and even commas to present an organized persona. By showing students how seemingly small choices can help them manage the impression they make on readers, emTrade-like Grammar Book/em helps students become more deliberate writers. Instead of a rules-driven approach comprehensive in scope and exhaustive in examples, emTrade-like Grammar Book/em uses brevity and humor to engage students and offer them a different way to understand grammar. Product Description emGrammar Moves: Shaping Who You Are /emhelps students understand how the grammatical moves they make reveal their personality traits and present their persona to their readers. The text's rhetorical approach emphasizes the transformative power that grammar choices can have on a writer and helps students develop the personality the wish to portray in their writing. Writers can use the imperative mood to suggest control, colons to be assertive, parenthesis to keep the conversation real, and even commas to present an organized persona. By showing students how seemingly small choices can help them manage the impression they make on readers, emGrammar Moves: Shaping Who You Are /emhelps students become more deliberate writers. Features + Benefits A conversational writing style punctuated with humor invites readers into this rhetorical approach to grammar. Short chapters on selected grammar topics keep instruction brief so that students can focus on thinking about grammar in a new light rather than memorizing a long list of usage rules. A Few Basics opens each chapter, outlining basic grammar rules of the chapter's topic element so that students without a strong sense of grammar will have a brief lesson to contextualize the chapter content, while students with a strong sense of grammar will be reminded of less common usages. Try This exercises close each chapter with low-stakes practice opportunities to help students learn chapter concepts in writing situations related to both to their academic and personal lives. Sample sentences resonate with students' pre-college and college experiences, touching on topics such as work, assignments, the Iraq War, the music industry, internships, and more so that students can better connect the grammar topics in every chapter to their own lives in and outside of college. An appendix on MLA style provides additional support for the instructor eager to try a rhetorical approach to grammar instruction but still requiring MLA coverage offered by traditional college handbooks.
