Discussion and Application worksheets. These documents replicate the end-of-chapter activities in the textbook, but they can be reproduced for a workbook or downloaded to computer workstations so that students do not have to write in their books. They are available both in a print version (for a workbook) and an online version (for completion at the computer).

PowerPoint presentations and tutorials. Slide shows review principles of grammar and style and issues in editing. For example, one show discusses dangling modifiers, and another distinguishes "although, but, and however" as connectors with similar meaning but different effects on sentence structure and punctuation. Two tutorials on advanced features of Microsoft Word help students develop skills for electronic editing.

Documents for editing practice. Documents that are longer than those in the Instructor's Manual and suitable for comprehensive editing are available for download.

Internet resources for editors. A list of sites with descriptions will help editors keep up to date on technology and locate reference materials.

Course preparation materials. The Instructor's Manual in pdf format, and a sample syllabus and syllabus template, as well as other materials for instructors, that supplement it.

To order a print version of the Instructor's Manual, use our Rep Locator to contact your Allyn & Bacon representative or call 1-800-852-8024.
