chessrascal Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I am going to be teaching an IEW (Institute for Excellence in Writing) to a High School class and would like to know if anyone knows a good editing type of workbook that we could use along with the course. I'm looking for one that actually explains the editing process - how to check grammar, punc. and cap., editing marks, etc. as well as giving some practice lessons. Not interested in editing programs that just give a sentence or paragraph to edit. Really looking for the instructional type. I'd also like some advice on a computer editing program. I will be proofing their papers, but would like to run it through a program as well. I've read that "Whitesmoke" has problems with bringing advertising into the computer. I was looking at another program called "Serenity Software", that only costs $50, but one review said it was complicated. There is another called "Style Writer", but it costs $150 and didin't want to put out that much. Are there any free or reasonably priced programs that actually check punc. and grammar usage? Thank you so much for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
