Blog I: Fall 2017

We discussed the different parts of technical writing and how it affects society.  For this blog, please write two full paragraphs on the following topic: Name an example of technical writing that you used.  Remember, technical writing is about taking action.  To help you better with this first blog post, I have included three questions you need to answer:

(1) What was the document and what did it get you do?


(2)Discuss the intended audience for this document.  Also, what do you think the skill level was?  Were the instructions written clearly?



(3) How might you improve the instruction?  Could any part of the instruction been better explained? Does the document involve any ethical concerns?



You may use pictures to illustrate your discussion.  You do not have to worry about citing the image(s) at this time.

Another possible idea for you:  The instructions do not have to be print.  You can use an instructional video from a website like YouTube.

Good luck!
