The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing

They Say/I Say

Gerald Graff / Kathy Birkenstein …   

Overview

"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.
