Writing Today is designed to teach you
the genres and rhetorical strategies you will need to succeed in your
advanced college courses, your career and your civic life. Current with
evolving cultural and technological trends, the text will prepare you
for the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), working in a multimodal
environment (e.g., composing electronic texts and using visual and audio
tools) and more. The authors provide clear instruction and visual cues
with annotated models and practice to help you master key writing
skills.
The 5th Edition reflects the
emergence of AI tools, such as ChatGPT, including guidance on ethically
using AI to assist with writing. Updates include enhanced coverage of
citing sources, new readings and writing samples, and a new Part 3
focused on transferring communication skills from college to the
workplace.
