Description
For courses in English. Revel(TM) is Pearson's newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, Revel replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience-for less than the cost of a traditional textbook. Learn the skill of rational argument. Revel Perspectives on Argument teaches students strategies for critical thinking, critical reading, research, and writing that will help them participate in all types of argument. The 9th Edition extends beyond reading, visual, and multimodal argument into the timely topic of online argument. Students will encounter argument at home, school, and on the job. The authors arm them with the tools they need to identify controversial topics, form opinions and reactions to text and pictures, and write persuasive papers that express their viewpoints. Perspectives on Argument also follows the premise that not all arguments involve right and wrong. Students will learn skills like finding common ground, consensus, withholding opinions, negotiating, and even changing beliefs when they can no longer make a case for them. Learn more about Revel.
