D#2.0, HW#8: Reflection
After reading the Chapters 1-4, I feel as if now I know the process it takes to write an effective technical document. Using the problem solving approach, as well as thinking rhetorically when drafting would surely help. I have learned of the many vehicles/types of documents that I could make and which one would be the most appropriate in a given situation. In addition to all of this, I have learned more about ethics and ethical writing. Both the Handbook of Technical Writing and the main text stress ways to avoid being unethical in your writing. I believe I can use these tips in, not just technical, but all types of writing. I was also able to take away more information on collaboration and the communication involved with that. In most workplaces, teamwork/group work is mandatory. I feel that the first four Chapters have really informed me and helped me learn skills that I can apply to my group work.

I am glad that you are picking up on everything. I am get most of it but it is still somewhat of a challenge to me because I am not much of a writer. I seem to over analyze everything.
