<p>Howdy, Hive Mind.</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone for your thoughtful and well-considered input
about the value of teaching hard-copy markup. It seems that, in
the long term, hard-copy markup is akin to buggy-whip braiding,
but for now, it still holds some potential value; I'll keep
teaching the unit with the attitude of "you might find this
useful" and reduce its grade weight. <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks again.</p>

<b>Subject:</b> [EXT] [ATTW-L] technical editing class --
hard-copy markup?</font>

<div class="PlainText">Hi, colleagues.<br>
<br>
I have a question, and I'd like your input.<br>
<br>
I'm updating my Technical Editing class, and I'm pondering
whether to <br>
keep or cut the unit on hard-copy markup. I taught this
unit in years <br>
past to good effect, but now that most editing is done
electronically, I <br>
wonder if hard-copy markup is a dead skill.<br>
<br>
If you were to (or if you actually do) teach a course on
technical <br>
editing, would you teach hard-copy markup?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.<br>
