Writing Guide Software for Successful College Writing
We're mindful of the demands on your time and resources--demands that make it difficult for you to take advantage of the continuing, exciting advances in educational technology. What you need are simple solutions. Our carefully tailored electronic media make it simple for you to incorporate technology into your writing course--so you can focus on your students.
The Writing Guide Software for Successful College Writing contains one electronic writing guide for each of the main assignments in the book, with prompts that walk students step-by-step through the process of completing the assignment. At each point along the way, students have easy access to detailed instructions, professional and student examples, reference material, and other useful support. At the end, students have a completed paper they can print, save, or turn in electronically.
Additional tools include an electronic journal, grammar diagnostics, skill tutorials, an error log, and easy access to online editing exercises.
A demo version has been developed to give you an overview of the main features of the software. You can download it below. However, please note that we have provided only partial content (one chapter) and that certain features are not fully implemented. Also please be aware that not all aspects of the program have been fully tested - you may encounter some bugs along the way.
