Hello fellow classmates!
Welcome to my website for English 301 – Technical Writing.
On my website, you can visit numerous sections that will provide you information in terms of myself and the course. Here are some of the sections that you might want to check out!
- Home Page (the page you are currently on! This page will be dedicated to providing information about the course, and my expectations regarding the course.)
- Blog – holds my reflections, blog posts and reviews.
- Biography – an introduction page, where I introduce who I am, and my professional and academic interests
- Resume – presents my background, skills, and accomplishments
- Best Work – examples of some of my best work in ENG 301
- Application Package – includes reference letters, resume, job advertisement and cover letter
With that being said, I would love to introduce myself briefly. For background, I am currently a fourth year BCS (Bachelor of Computer Science) student, who is planning to graduate in 2023. I got my first degree in Public Health at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
As an individual who is still fairly new to the software development world, I have struggled numerous times writing and discussing to individuals on more technical or topics of different context. Through this course, I hope to be able to practice and perfect the strategies given in this class to write and discuss in specific contexts such as business, professional or technical. I am hoping to use these skills to be able to better gauge and analyze not only a client’s needs, but other individuals that I work with as well in the software development world. By taking this course, I feel I will be able to further advance my career by developing my communication skills and utilizing them on a daily basis in the work force.
With the entire class being offered in an online classroom environment, I hope to engage with each of you in peer review, online discussion and analysis in any of the given contexts stated previously.
Please feel free to comment or share your ideas with me. I am looking forward to meeting you all!
Best,
Ali Hasan
