Good

This is a valuable resource for university lecturers who include writing as a part of their course. There is a lot of good advice on how to construct writing assignments in ways that encourage students to engage in critical thinking. Of particular use is the advice on how to grade papers in a way that reduces the work load for professors while still focusing on the most important aspects of writing. Finally, there is also a good section that addresses students' weakness with academic reading. If you're teaching at the university or high school level, this is a good book to have in your library.
