Writing for Students DVD Series

Whether composing an email, an essay, a story or a letter, understanding the elements of writing – from identifying purpose and audience to developing a writing process and proofreading a final piece – can make all the difference. In Writing for Students, two lively hosts journey through the world of writing, uncovering the ins and outs of writing effectively and sharing real-world skills, tips and techniques along the way. Students in the midst of prewriting, drafting, revising, editing or proofreading explain their own writing processes and how they tackle common dilemmas to communicate clearly through writing. Teacher's guides are included and available online.
