Académique Documents
Professionnel Documents
Culture Documents
Language and design were important components of every document contained herein
(SLO 5). The progress report is a stellar example of language. My group and I revised the
document several times to ensure the conciseness and clarity of the document. Every word and
design feature was deliberately included because we felt that they added to the effectiveness of
the document. Design was paramount in my slide from my e-waste presentation, where I made a
visual aid that was easy to follow in order to help my classmates understand a complex concept I
had to explain rather quickly. Design was also important in the progress report memo, where
adequate use of white space added clarity and ease of transfer of information.
Collaboration (SLO 6) was best demonstrated in the progress report because of this
cooperative nature. While separate members of my iFixit team wrote different sections of the
document initially, we all worked together through our Google Docs folder to create one
cohesive work that reflected all of our collective strengths.
In summary, the work contained in my portfolio demonstrates my ability to use varying
rhetorical foci, conduct ethical research, persuade, organize, use language and design effectively,
and collaborate with others. They indicate that I was an active learner in my Technical Writing
course and fully understand the workplace application of the skills I acquired this semester.
Thanks for making this course so enjoyable!
Sincerely,
Raenicia Haworth
