The Bedford researcher  Cover Image Book Book

The Bedford researcher / Mike Palmquist.

Palmquist, Mike, (author.).

Summary:

Offers a research writing guide addressing the wide variety of source-based writing students do and the kinds of sources they actually use, from multimodal projects and oral presentations to Web sites and digital databases. Palmquist strips away the complexities of research writing across the disciplines and offers the practical help students need to write with confidence while integrating electronic sources and tools into each stage of the process. He addresses the vast amount of information available to writers, the expanding variety of media and genres used by writers to share their work, the critical importance and increasingly challenge of evaluating sources, and the demands of managing information effectively and efficiently.
