Your ticket to becoming a better writer Few things can make you as self-conscious about your writing as reviewing a book that you feel has improved your writing. And few things are as silly as terribly written reviews praising such books. Hopefully, what I learned from this book will lead me to be able to write a review that will convince you to buy it.

Course Objectives: Through careful analysis, evaluation, and synthesis of information, students formulate adequate theses, moving beyond the scope of reporting information to composing papers that express their reasoned judgments on meaningful topics. Students strengthen their understanding of rhetorical situations and persuasive discourse by preparing a fully-documented research paper. They select their own topics, use a variety of investigative techniques, and survey a wide range of resources inside and outside the library (lectures, films, documentaries, police reports, interviews). Specifically, in English 111C, students will (1) refine their writing processes; (2) abstract and summarize the content of readings in a range of disciplines and analyze both their own texts and the texts of others based on rhetorical criteria (e.g., purpose, audience appeal, voice, style, arrangement); (3) apply principles of argumentation, including uses of assumptions, claims, emotion and reason and to identify logical fallacies, biases, and propaganda;

Abbreviations Common Latin Abbreviations (Current usage/news) Commentary and usage suggestions on Latin abbreviations found on the web... Latin Abbreviations (University of Michigan, US) All of these antiquated Latin abbreviations at one time had an important purpose. They functioned as a secondary, parenthetical language which sifted through, evaluated, qualified references for the reader. Eighteenth-century scholars used all of these designations as a way of talking to each other in code, telling each other what to expect from their sources. It was a natural mode of discourse for themthey all studied Latin, of course. Abbreviations of Latin Expressions (English Plus+, US) In standard writing, use the English equivalent or write out the whole word. Some common Latin expressions (University of Edinburgh, UK) Nowadays many publishers discourage the use of these Latin expressions and their abbreviations in footnotes and endnotes (presumably because so few people know what they mean!), but some publishers (Oxford University Press, for example) seem to insist on them. Anyway, these are the most commonly used in references, footnotes etc., should you come across them, or feel the urge to start using them yourselves. Abbreviations (Capital Community College, US)
