WEEK FOUR

This week has been progressing along okay, but things are getting a little tight especially when it is getting down to the wire. I have been learning a lot about tech comm. i n reading chapters 4-6, Internet and digital research was a biggie for me because in using the internet for information, you have to make sure that the info is reliable and up to date. Also, it is very tempting if you have to write a research paper and you find on the web a very good example for a paper, and you see some info you could use, to not be guilty of plagiarism.

WEEK THREE

I am a few days behind on posting to discussion board for week three. This is week three isn't it..... This week has been very interesting especially with the fact that I am trying to keep up with three online classes with papers to write in each one. I am learning more and more of the importance of technical communications. Chapter three touched on subjects that are very helpful in my field. In technical writing it is very important to use appropriate grammar style and to revise information and documents to conform to audience feedback.

So far so good...

WEEK TWO

What I have learned this week ,from reading chapter two, is making sure I keep the audience in mind when using technical communication. I am a Medical Technologist by profession, and we use a whole lot of documentation. The purpose of this documentation is to convey to the reader what they are doing and making sure they are following procedure. I may even have to revise a certain procedure or even write one and I have to make sure and ask myself; Who will be reading or using this material? Why is this information needed? What will they do with this information? I would be addressing an expert audience ,so then I would not have to go into great detail about what this or that means as opposed to presenting to an audience who knows nothing about lab procedures.
