During the first ten minutes of class today, write a summary of your reading from Paul Anderson’s Technical Communication: Chapter 17, Revising Your Drafts. You have already been using some of his suggestions in your work on Project 1. In addition to your summary, consider these questions: How might you put revision practices into action in your other classes at City Tech? How might you put revision practices into action in the workplace?

During the first ten minutes of today’s class, write a summary of Anderson’s TC Chapter 8: Drafting Reader-Centered Paragraphs, Sections, and Chapters. Think about how these things relate to the usefulness-focus of workplace communication. As with your previous writings, you should format this as a memo. One thing that I have noticed few people doing is that your memo should begin with the word “Memo” or “Memorandum” at the top of the page (normally this is centered  but in a comment box you cannot add that kind of formatting, which is okay). Then, you give your from, to, subject, date block followed by your summary.

During the first ten minutes of class today, write a summary memo (don’t forget the full memo format–title MEMO, from/to/subject/date block, and content) of Anderson’s Technical Communication Chapter 5: Planning Your Persuasive Strategies.
