520 $a"Becoming an Active Reader offers a three-in-one approach that combines a comprehensive guide to rhetorical writing, an engaging reader, and a detailed grammar handbook, all in a single volume. The advice and exercises found throughout help students understand and apply the most effective reading and writing strategies, while the 39 thought-provoking readings encourage meaningful interaction with the written word. Becoming an Active Reader is a shorter, more accessible version of The Active Reader, retaining the strengths of the parent book while incorporating the accessibility required for colleges (and some universities) across Canada. Annotated sample student essays, individual and collaborative exercises, checklists, and grammar hints appear throughout to help students navigate effective strategies for reading and writing. The reader presents academic and non-academic selections from a variety of disciplines, which are supported by pre- and post-reading questions. Author Eric Henderson's underlying instructional philosophy is to teach students to think critically about the choices they make while reading and writing rather than following rules by rote."--$cProvided by publisher.
