ENGL 301 Technical Writing is a course that will teach us how to practice and perfect elements of writing in business, professional and technical contexts. This course provides us with opportunities to utilize the strategies and techniques learnt in throughout the course and implement them into our own writing. During this learning process, we will engage with classmates in online discussion, peer review, and analysis of documents. This course also gives me the opportunity to develop and design an online portfolio in two forms: a Linked in profile with accompanying references and a professionally designed website that also presents your resume. I hope that this course with teach me how to reflect on my own writing and develop self-editing skills. Throughout the four units in this term, I hope to better understand the principles of technical communication, learning how to design a report proposal, outline, draft and final report of my own resume and job application, as well as peer review.
