Welcome to UBC Blogs.

ENG 301 Technical Writing course is designed to encourage and facilitate professional writing knowledge and skills within an online collaborative team work environment.

UNIT 1 introduces the students to the course contents and expectations; as well, for setting up student blogs and personal introduction presentations. Next we will create writing teams, followed by studying and practicing techniques for writing professional documents, definitions and peer review.

UNIT 2 focuses on writing techniques for our formal reports and proposal writing; brainstorming; networking; resume writing; outlines and progress reports; reflecting; and self-editing. We will be required to participate in our team forum assignments and set up a Linked-In profile

UNIT 3 studies and reviews writing with the right attitude skills and techniques. More work on formal reports will be focused on, and students will begin job/volunteer or graduate school search.

UNIT 4 requires that students develop a strategy for social networking and draft documents for the job/volunteer, graduation school application. During this final unit job application package will be submit; formal reports will be submit; as well, Web Folios are to be complete.

The units of this course are composed of multiple assignments which provide opportunities for the students to apply the knowledge studied in a formal composition. Strategies and processes are pivotal knowledge alongside multiple formats of professional documentation and technical communication skills.

My expectations from this course are to obtain further knowledge of professional writing, documentations and technical abilities, while strengthening my already existing skills and knowledge.
