The Student Workbook for The Art of Editing in the Age of Convergence helps students learn the fundamentals of copy editing by giving them an abundance of carefully constructed exercises on which to work. Designed as a complement to the 9th Edition of The Art of Editing, the workbook is divided into sections that correspond to the major blocks of instruction in the main text. However, it can also be used as a supplement to other editing texts that may take a different approach. This updated version of the workbook gives teachers access to exercises that have been tried and tested by students at the Missouri School of Journalism and at Eastern Michigan University. Almost every section includes quizzes, essay questions, problems, and exercises for students to tackle. Collectively, the exercises cover almost every point of editing that could be made in a copy-editing class.
Answer Key for the Workbook for The Art of Editing can be found in the Instructor's Manual, available from your Pearson Representative.
