Description
Students will learn to research and write papers in all their subject areas with this thorough and complete guide to research in the humanities, sciences, social sciences, and business. They will explore the entire research process, including intellectual inquiry and critical thinking, rather than simply writing a "term paper," by using the inquiry process research method.
Research and Writing Across the Curriculum provides discipline-specific guidance and sample papers that reflect differences in presentation characteristics of each discipline. The text also covers research methods and resources as they apply to all disciplines, with a comprehensive list of library resources and an introduction to the latest electronic and online resources. With thorough and up-to-date material on the impact of computers in research, and exercises that develop the skills of summarizing, synthesizing, and critiquing source materials, Hult's text provides a complete guide to research styles and processes across the disciplines.
