Today's students don't just write papers;they create multimedia presentations. They don't just do research;they shift through a mountain of on line information. They don't just read print texts;they analyze visual information of all kinds. With the new standards being set for today's students,shouldn't toda's students have the new standard in college handbooks?

Elaine P. Maimon is the first author of several widely used texts--"A Writer's Resource", "The McGraw-Hill Handbook", "The Brief McGraw-Hill Handbook", and "Writing Intensive"--all published by McGraw-Hill, with the intention of helping students become independent writers. In the 1970's, she initiated and then directed the Beaver College writing-across-the-curriculum program, one of the first WAC programs in the nation. With a Ph.D. in English from the University of Pennsylvania, where she later helped to create the Writing Across the University (WATU) program, she has taught and served as an academic administrator at Haverford College, Brown University, Queens College, and Arizona State University. She was Chancellor of the University of Alaska Anchorage, and is now President of Governors State University, the only public university in the south suburbs of Chicago.

From an reader: To describe just example of what the book offers, I love what Kathleen Blake Yancey writes about teaching students to lean into what they don't understand about the texts they read, transforming not understanding into "not-understanding," developing a lack of understanding into an articulation of what it is that one does not understand, which is actually a whole lot closer to comprehension than it is to confusion: "Not-understanding is not an absence, but rather an acquired art. As students learn, articulating what they don't understand is a critical first move toward a fuller, more complex understanding" (45). Beautiful!

This work discusses the assessment of writing across the curriculum. It is the first volume in a series analyzing perspectives on writing. The series provides a broad-based forum for monographs and collections in a range of topics that employ diverse theoretical research and pedagogical approaches. The editors emphasize inclusion, both conceptually and methodologically, in the series to highlight the strength and vibrancy of work in rhetoric, composition and writing.
