Book
So, where's your thesis? / Derek Irwin, Viktoria Jovanovic-Krstic, Bruce Watson.
"This guide provides a glimpse into the minds of professors, and examines what their expectations are around essay writing. Using the lens of evaluation, the authors demystify the grading process so students have a better understanding of what is expected from them and how they can get a better grade. These authors believe that if students understand how their papers are evaluated, this understanding will not only result in better grades, but ultimately, better written papers. The practical approach, combined with its brevity, make this an ideal resource for students." --publisher's website
