Clarifying a Technical Document
Submit the assignment by 11:59 PM PT Sunday of Module 4.
In this application assignment, you will locate a technical document with poorly written “how-to” instructions. You will rewrite the document to make it more user friendly and to either include graphics or revise the existing graphics. To emphasize the importance of clarity and precise word choice, you will create two short video presentations to illustrate what happens using each set of instructions.
Step 1. Locate
Locate a technical writing document with poorly written “how-to” instructions. The writing may be too complex, lack clarity, feature small graphics with difficult-to-read directions, etc. Identify the target audience for the product and its instructions.
Step 2. Rewrite
Rewrite the poorly written instructions to increase the clarity and meaning for the target audience. Carefully consider your word choices.
Step 3. Illustrate
Include new graphics that illustrate the steps, or clarify the instructions for the graphics provided in the original document.
Step 4. Create
Create two brief videos illustrating the outcomes for each set of instructions. Make sure the videos are compatible with Canvas.
