A Writers Reference, Hacker D., Sommers N., 2015.
    
   This new edition of A Writer’s Reference grows out of my thirty years as a writing teacher and from many conversations with college faculty across disciplines. In all these conversations, I hear a similar theme: Writing is the core of a student’s success, no matter the field of study. Teachers speak about ambitious assignments to teach students how to think and write clearly and precisely, how to interpret evidence and data, and how to enter research conversations with the requisite skills to manage information and avoid plagiarism. And faculty across disciplines all speak about the need for their students to have a reliable handbook to help them understand the expectations of college writing assignments and succeed as writers.




Adding visuals as you draft.
As you draft, you may decide that support for your thesis could come from one or more visuals. Visuals can convey information concisely and powerfully. Graphs and tables, for example, can simplify complex numerical information. Images—including photographs and diagrams — often express an idea more vividly than words can. Keep in mind that if you download a visual or use published information to create your own visual, you must credit your source.

Always consider how a visual supports your purpose and how your audience might respond to it. A student writing about the shift from print to online news, for example, used a screen shot of a link embedded in a news article to illustrate a point (see A4-h). Another student, writing about treatments for childhood obesity, created a table to display data she discussed in her paper (see APA-5b).

As you draft, carefully choose visuals to supplement your writing, not to substitute for it. The chart on pages 18-19 describes eight types of visuals and their purposes.
