Class Description:
Technical and professional writing is writing that communicates complex information to readers or users who need this information to solve some problem or complete some task. More than just documents, we view technical and professional writing as cultural artifacts that reflect the social processes, economic realities, and political constraints of the context in which they were composed. This course seeks to introduce students to these issues. In WRIT 3562W, we seek to help students:
  • Write about specific tasks, products, and procedures
  • Explain detailed and complex technical information to diverse audiences
  • Rhetorically analyze writing situations, multiple purposes, and potential audiences in order to create texts that solve problems
  • Design visual and verbal information, and work with the concepts of text arrangement and document design
  • Understand and practice features of "readable" written communication such as grammar and style
  • Conduct research and clearly convey results of research
  • Consider ethical implications and the ways issues of knowledge, power, or human activity impact writing

Class Description:
Technical and professional writing is writing that communicates complex information to readers or users who need this information to solve some problem or complete some task. More than just documents, we view technical and professional writing as cultural artifacts that reflect the social processes, economic realities, and political constraints of the context in which they were composed. This course seeks to introduce students to these issues. In WRIT 3562W, we seek to help students:
  • Write about specific tasks, products, and procedures
  • Explain detailed and complex technical information to diverse audiences
  • Rhetorically analyze writing situations, multiple purposes, and potential audiences in order to create texts that solve problems
  • Design visual and verbal information, and work with the concepts of text arrangement and document design
  • Understand and practice features of "readable" written communication such as grammar and style
  • Conduct research and clearly convey results of research
  • Consider ethical implications and the ways issues of knowledge, power, or human activity impact writing
