Spring 2009
Welcome to my Dr. Jim Lipuma ENG 352 –H02 class Webpage. Below are the links to the Assignments (in chronological order) that were assigned in class. Enjoy!!
In my technical writing class I have learned how to improve on various professional writing communications. I learned how to make a resume and cover letter look professional as if I am selling myself to a company. I have learned how to critique a document like a process description. The end of year project was interesting because we picked a Wikipedia topic and edited or created a page on Wikipedia. The course’s basic idea is MIMES and TRIBES, which are to know your target, submit a good package and have a goal.
