They Say / I Say: The Moves That Matter In Academic Writing
Identifying the moves that matter in academic writing in ways that students can readily understand and apply.
"They Say / I Say" shows that writing well means mastering some key rhetorical moves, the most important of which involves summarizing what others have said ("they say") to set up one€s own argument ("I say"). In addition to explaining the basic moves, this book provides writing templates that show students explicitly how to make these moves in their own writing.
