Resumen, etc. CAROL C.<br/><br/>Preface for Instructors<br/><br/>HE FID R<br/><br/>sation sand ie at om<br/><br/>When we set out to write a new paragraph-to-essay developmental text, we knew what we wanted to accomplish. We wanted Focus on Writing: Para-graphs and Essays to reflect two of our central beliefs: first, that in college, writing comes first and second, that students learn writing and grammar skills best in the context of their own writing. We also knew that we had an opportunity to bring developmental textbooks to another level to recog-nize who is taking basic writing classes today and to engage them in a new and different way. Our students may be basic writers, but they live in a world of images. We wanted to engage our students with a highly visual book and a contemporary design that reflected the most recent pedagogy about reaching basic writers. We conducted usability testing in classrooms to see how students responded to our books' designs and layouts. Consequently, the pages of Focus on Writing have clean, open margins, with the most important information moved directly into the body of the text, and an up-to-date look that takes the needs of today's basic writing students seriously. We also wanted this book to be accessible to all basic writers: the text explana tions and instructions are clear and streamlined throughout to make them as transparent as possible.<br/><br/>Still, Focus on Writing is most importantly a writing text. For this reason, the book begins with thorough coverage of the writing process and includes extensive writing practice throughout the text. Most chapters open with a writing prompt that asks students to respond to an evocative and contempo rary visual. Students practice not only by working through effective exer-cises but also by applying each chapter's concepts to their own original writing, giving them a sense of ownership of their work. We included lots of grammar support to help basic writers understand and apply the fundamen-tals of good writing, and our up-to-date exercise topics relate to students as citizens of the world beyond the college campus.<br/><br/>Further, because we know that the issues of the developmental class room are not limited to writing, Focus on Writing offers other resources such<br/>
