![]() ![]() I thought the organization and content were clear and easy to follow. ![]() Some of the readings and links might need to be updated as well. ![]() It might be a good idea to have a link to the Purdue Owl English web page in this chapter as the rules of MLA and APA often change over the years. The only concern is that the MLA/APA chapter may need to be updated. The chapters are relevant for any college composition course. The authors did an excellent job in this area as there were not any errors that I could see. There is a lot to pick and choose from in this 600-page book. It also starts with reading strategies, and this is also helpful because many students today do not read carefully, and this can be a problem when they start to write a paper that asks them to analyze a reading. This is a good way to start a college composition course because students often do not understand the demands of college writing. The beginning of the book has a comparison/contrast on the expectations of high school and college. What I like about this text, is that you can pick which topics will fit your course design. There are 15 chapters, and each chapter is well-organized and includes some sample essays and grammar exercises. Writing for Success is a good text for an intro-college writing and grammar text.
