First Edition

The Evolving Essay will help students write better scholarly essays, reports, and other academic genres and develop rhetorically sound, research-based approaches to writing for particular audiences. The text also discusses how these forms of writing are evolving in academic, professional, and everyday writing situations and how to adapt writing strategies to meet particular genre-driven rhetorical goals.

This textbook, then, moves students from traditional writing assignments into multimodal compositions, developing skills that fit ever-changing writing situations. Using application-based auto-graded questions, short videos that elucidate and extend pedagogy, and meaningful, longer form writing and multimodal assignments, The Evolving Essay offers interactive instruction to guide digital natives through their first-year composition courses.
