- 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

- Course Catalog Description:
- This course introduces students to technical and professional writing through various readings and assignments in which students analyze and create texts that work to communicate complex information, solve problems, and complete tasks. Students gain knowledge of workplace genres as well as to develop skills in composing such genres. This course allows students to practice rhetorically analyzing writing situations and composing genres such as memos, proposals, instructions, research reports, and presentations. Students work in teams to develop collaborative content and to compose in a variety of modes including text, graphics, video, audio, and digital. Students also conduct both primary and secondary research and practice usability testing. The course emphasizes creating documents that are goal-driven and appropriate for a specific context and audience.
- 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
