Week Two Assignments

Try to complete this by our next meeting. You do NOT need to memorize the material. Just take in what you can.

1) Read chapter 2 of the "Elements of Technical Writing" book. Continue taking notes as you read, as this will help you to remember. Again, do not worry if you do not understand it all. Remember, this is college material and we have plenty of time.

2) Read part 2 of the "Idiot's" guide.

3) View any of the applicable online eHow "Laura Turner Writers Series" at http://www.ehow.com/videos-on_9019_technical-writing-skills.html AND at http://www.ehow.com/videos-on_9616_creative-writing-tips-students-teachers.html
Some of these videos will be helpful. Ignore those that are not applicable. You may also search the eHow.com video library (top search tool bar) for additional technical writing videos. eHow is a great resource for instructional videos and it's free. Watch any videos that correspond with your current reading material.

At our next meeting we will:

-review the previous weeks assignments

-will answer your own questions
