Chapter 2 Reflection

I think that everyone in college should have to read this chapter. In almost every class we have group projects and this chapter really talks about to successfully work in a group. I thought it was interesting all the different technologies that can help a group communicate. The suggestion of digital whiteboards was really interesting to me. I think that this technology could be really helpful and a fun way to collaborate ideas. I also liked how they talked about editing each other's work. I think that this can sometimes be very hard for group members to do in fear of offending someone. By giving tips of how to edit each other's work it will help the group to work together and end up with a better finished product.

Chapter 1 Reflection

I found chapter one to be very interesting. I had not thought of technical writing to include so many different forms. It had never occurred to me that emails or letters could be considered technical writing. I also had thought that the process for writing technical pieces that the process would be different than other writing but it really is not. You still have to consider the audience and proof read like you do with any other writing. I found it very interesting how familiar technical writing is since I thought it was going to be very different.
