Description

From Amazon.com:

<strong>Identifying the moves that matter in academic writing in ways that students can readily understand and apply.<br /></strong> <em>"They Say / I Say"</em> shows that writing well means mastering some key rhetorical moves, the most important of which involves summarizing what others have said ("they say") to set up one’s own argument ("I say"). In addition to explaining the basic moves, this book provides writing templates that show students explicitly how to make these moves in their own writing. .
