Grammar and the Teaching of Writing

Limits and Possibilities

Beschreibung

For many students, Noguchi believes, formal study of grammar seems far removed from the daily use of language. He believes that grammar can help students but only with style, not with content or organization, and he suggests presenting students with a "writer's grammar" that specifically addresses the problems that crop up most often or those that society deems most serious.
