Final Project ENGL 308

I created my final project in PowerPoint and I couldn't find how to attach it onto a blog post so I sent it to you email. A trouble I did have on this project was trying to condense a ton of information into 10 slides and not have the slides be overwhelming just from shear word number. I did want to say thank you for being a respectable and knowledgeable teacher. We aren't given writing classes as a Mechanical Engineering student and this really did boosted my confidence with writing technical documents. Hope you have a great rest of the summer.

DD10HW4 Chapter 18

In chapter 18, the book discusses about using a problem-solving model for preparing recommendation reports. The writing process for a recommendation report is similar to that for any other technical communication includes: planning, drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading. This will act as a sole structure on how our group will complete the task. Also in Chapter 18, the book further discusses each step of the writing process. For example, in Planning, it talks about analyzing your audience, determine your purpose, and visualize the deliverable: the report you will submit. For this project it is vital to know who is going to read your work and to not stray from the purpose of the work. Also in Chapter 18, it talks about drafting as one of the steps of the writing process. Writing multiple drafts of the report is essential to work out any errors in your work and to perfect it. Lastly in Chapter 18, it talks about revising, editing, and proofreading. With these, we will be abl...

DD7HW3 Identify Key Visualization Techniques

As a Mechanical Engineer, I will see many types of visuals in the field. For example: Checklist: When developing a new creation at a company, a instruction manual with a list of required materials will be needed. Also, when operating huge machinery, there will be a safety checklist required to be read before each use. Tables: Tables are very useful in my field. With Mechanical Engineering, I might be task with finding the cheapest material that will accomplish the task. In order to find those materials, there are hundreds of books with tables of each material and it's properties. Photograph: This previous semester I took a class called "Fluid Mechanics" and there were these photographs of "vortex shedding" when can't really be described in words. Line Graph: Also last semester, I took a class called "Component Design" and in that class we looked at how many numbers of cycles can an object take a load before failure. When talking about the E...
