THINK YOUR WAY TO EFFECTIVE

WRITING

Third Edition

Antonia Chandrasegaran and Kirsten Schaetzel

Think Your Way to Effective Writing shows students how to

improve their writing by thinking rhetorically and attending

to the social dimension of written discourse This

socio-rhetorical approach is based on current theories of

composition, which take into account the socio-cultural

situation in which writing occurs, the social function of the

written product, the relationship between writer and

reader, and their respective social roles with reference to

a piece of writing

Unlike conventional writing texts which tend to only

describe desired features of the finished essay or letter,

Think Your Way to Effective Writing demonstrates the

thinking and writer-reader interaction processes which will

enable students to produce the desired features Examples

and exercises are provided for students to experience

the kind of thinking and situation awareness underlying

effective academic writing

Composed of two parts, Part A teaches, in a step-by-step

fashion, the thought processes involved in a socio-rhetorical

approach to academic and functional writing Part B is

designed to guide post-graduate students through the

thinking and writing processes involved in successful thesis

or dissertation writing
