Planning Memo
--Audience for this project is twofold: our first audience will be the
writers/original authors of the first section of the administrative report
concerning Community Engagement; our second audience will be the
recipients (administrators, directors, research associates) of the final
report at UNC Charlotte in the office of Academic Affairs.
--The primary purpose of the edits are to enhance the usability and
cohesiveness of this document. The purpose is to communicate our
comments and suggestions to UNCC Office of Academic Affairs faculty

consider revisions.

-- Tone or voice you hope to project in editing and reporting your

observations:
While editing I want to project a helpful and resourceful style of edits. I
want to enhance the product and ultimately give the Office of
Academic Affairs some options in altering their community
engagement report for the following years to come. By doing so, I want

Mirna Garcia
to communicate an unbiased and objective set of comments and
suggestions.
