Showing students that the act of writing is connected to their daily lives, Mauk/Metz's THE COMPOSITION OF EVERYDAY LIFE, 7th EDITION, emphasizes invention to help students uncover meaning and rethink the world around them. The focused exploration of invention helps students generate sophisticated ideas, deep analyses and resonant arguments. The result is an unleashing of student confidence to become creative thinkers and self-aware writers. Chapters include step-by-step instruction, assignment-specific questions, collaborative workshops and student-generated models. Mauk and Metz emphasize how successful writers think -- how they create vibrant ideas, challenge their own assumptions and engage possibilities.
