EDU 509 - Writing for Professionals

Successful professionals need to write clear and effective proposals, reports, directives, and requests. Students learn how to re-search, manage, and clarify information; how to revise through multiple drafts to tailor writing to its intended audience; how to anticipate reader’s needs for information and manage reader’s attitudes; and how to balance conciseness with communication. They also study the results of recent research into how people read and how writers write most effectively. This focus enables student writers to manage the process of writing to achieve both clarity and desired results.
