Genres & Modes Hugh Culik

Genres & Modes provides writing instructors with a process model that transforms the rhetorical modes into steps in the critical-thinking process. It offers practical tools that students can use to sharpen reading skills, ask probing questions, and propose new insights. The process model and its accompanying tools can structure class activities; in addition, a variety of assignments and templates are easily used -- and adapted -- to the interests of individual instructors.
