College Writing Basics has a rather unique format that allows it to meet the needs of developmental writers. It is divided into six "levels" with each level presenting more challenging material as students build their skills and confidence. Each level also covers the same basic skill areas, albeit with increasing sophistication, so that students receive regular skills reinforcement. Finally, each section within a level contains answer-keyed exercises, an end-of-section practice quiz, and an instructor's manual section quiz so that both student and instructor can monitor an individual's progress. Hence, College Writing Basics may be used with any degree of individualization that the instructor feels is beneficial for a given class.
