Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Identifying the moves that matter in academic writing in ways that students can readily understand and apply. "They Say / I Say" shows that writing well means mastering some key rhetorical moves, the most important of which involves summarizing what others have said ("they say") to set up one’s own argument ("I say"). In addition to explaining the basic moves, this book provides writing templates that show students explicitly how to make these moves in their own writing. .

Wonderful a must. September 15, 2009
M. Robinson
This is a must for anyone wanting to better understand the structure of writing. It goes beyond writing and shows how what you learn can be used in everyday conversations as well. IF you are in college, high school or middle school this is a must, you will be surprised at how simple writing can be and may even out score your classmates.

This is an excellent resource for those woriing with undergraduate students. The templates model a way to engage students in the research process as a way of learning the kind of thinking ittakes to do it well.
