I would like to express to you just how much I have learned from this technical writing course. Initially I thought this course would be about writing resumes, memos, and creating other basic documents that are used in the professional atmosphere. I was pleased to learn that this course expands beyond those basics to include grammatical correctness, creating informative and compelling reports, and being successful in group projects. I have excelled at things such as time management, but I have also struggled with correctly formatting documents. With that said, your leadership and assistance has helped me find ways to improve in both my strengths and weaknesses. I learned quite a bit about myself as a writer in the first half of this semester. There were several times that your comments on my work expressed pleasure with my ability to follow assignment instructions and accurately revise my work according to your suggestions. It was notated at least once that I did a good job of finding accredited and reliable resources for my formal project. I also found some positive reinforcement for being able to acknowledge and connect the audience to my writing. With life, and with writing, there is always room for improvement, and my weaknesses display that idea clearly. After reviewing the first half of the semesters assignments, I have realized that I still need to work on document formatting. I tend to miss things like alphabetizing my bibliography, making headings shorter, and putting more important information at the beginning of a report. I also need to work on wordiness and organization. I know that I easily lose my audiences attention by not establishing a specific and recognizable problem and not following that problem with a specific solution. As this course continues, I would like to work on several aspects of my writing. I would like to be able to recognize and correct any instances when I am using the passive voice in a sentence. I would also like to work on improving the readability of my work by providing clear evidence that can be easily connected to my examples, being more specific with the information that I provide, and using the P.E.E. format. Overall, I am very grateful for this course and the tools it has given me to become a better writer. Sincerely, Paige Bradshaw
