Le manuel Résumer, synthétiser, argumenter s’adresse aux étudiants de français langue seconde de niveau avancé (3^e ou 4^e année universitaire, essentiellement).

Comme son titre l’indique, le manuel couvre l’écriture de résumés et de synthèses (cinq chapitres) et de textes argumentatifs (cinq chapitres). Les dix chapitres permettent de couvrir facilement un cours de six crédits; on peut également se servir du manuel pour un cours de trois crédits axé sur le résumé et la synthèse ou sur l’écrit argumentatif (ou sur une combinaison des deux en opérant une sélection).

Profitant des possibilités qu’offre le format multimédia, le manuel intègre un certain nombre d’exercices autocorrigés et de présentations sur des points de langue.

Ce manuel se présente dans un format multistandard et multiplateforme. On peut le consulter à partir d’ordinateurs, de tablettes et de téléphones. Il est également possible de le télécharger en format « pdf » (amputé des éléments multimédias) pour mieux le redécouper ou l’imprimer.
