In this discussion topic, we will review another skill of professional writing — writing a set of professional and clear instructions for an audience.
This discussion topic will also involve the following readings. They are provided back in the Week Four Content in Learning Resources.
Scenario: Anderson College (Part II)
Jay Williams’ Ineffective Instructions
In week 4, you identified some of the problems with a poorly written set of instructions written by Jay Williams, the student worker.
In this discussion topic, you, as the new student worker, will rewrite these set of instructions. In this discussion topic, please complete the following:
1. Download the poorly written instructions on how to adjust the discussion settings in LEO.
2. Rewrite the instructions using the same graphics that are in the poorly written set of instructions. Please read part II of the Anderson College scenario to review the scenario and understand the audience to whom you are writing the instructions.
3. Attach your rewritten instructions to this discussion topic.
