"Reading and Writing for Academic Success presents high- level academic content-based instruction to students who are preparing to participate in a particular literacy group, the academic community. The material is appropriate for classes where critiquing and integrating authentic texts to reflect, react, write, and revise are stressed." "Reading and Writing for Academic Success emphasizes reading and writing as they are interrelated for academic purposes, the importance of quality supporting information and credibility of evidence, critical-thinking skills, and the need for a relevant coherent theme to develop interest and expertise."
