Course Reflection
Technical communication is a board field that includes
communicating about technical topic, communicating by using technology and
providing instructions about how to do something. Throughout this course we
taught how to use the different tools in technical communication. We were first
introduced to blogging; it is an intuitive part of this course in which we
learn how to express our self on all forms of technology. The blog page lets
other sees what the writer things about a particular type of technology and
gives them the option to comment on it, so as to let the writer know on points
should be change or omitted. The first written assignment of this course was to
write a professional memo, most of us like myself read a memo, I never
understand what the purpose of a memo was. But after having to write one I truly
understand the purpose of a memo. A memo is note written in a professional manner
to let you know of changes or update in a company. Our second written assignment
was technical description of a product; mine for example was an arc welding
robot. We were given research link which help us get the necessary information needed
to complete this task. The final assignment was a recommendation report, in
which we had to recommend a product to senior management to buy and install. Throughout
this course we were taught how to do research and write technically and not
fictionally. We these new skills which we gain form this course it makes us
better writer and make us appreciate technical writing more. The best part of
this course was the simplicity in which the information was presented to us via
a web site which out class could access. “eng259.blogsite.org/”
