[Cover]Effective Teaching of Technical Communication: Theory, Practice, and Application
Edited by Michael J. Klein
Drawn from quantitative and qualitative work of practitioners in the field, this edited collection provides an update to the Staples and Ornatowski's influentialFoundations of Teaching Technical Communication (1997). The collection is organized around the broad themes of expanding pedagogy, shaping curriculum, incorporating technology, and engaging community. In each section, authors illustrate their experiences with teaching in the university technical communication classroom, addressing topics such as rethinking the role of internships, redesigning student learning outcomes for assessment practices, incorporating ethics into the technical communication classroom, using visual communication in community context, and engaging plain language. These sixteen chapters, taken as a whole or individually, provide readers with insights and examples into teaching technical communication in the 21st century.
You can find the book at https://wac.colostate.edu/books/tpc/effective/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wac.colostate.edu_books_tpc_effective_&d=DwMFAw&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=joiTvklFutxroLcGNt-8Hw&m=9hHM1S-l1w__Q0SKe37ymhj5IYH1vi-e43t0Dxj2z5A&s=drsATrfqrw6tQLJ0It4E0SYQvkgP1KhHaqmBIAgVzcU&e=>. Thanks to Michael and the many contributors to the collection for their willingness to share this book with us as an open-access publication. Thanks as well to the anonymous peer reviewers who contributed to its development.
All the best,
Mike
