A brief description of technical communications.



Hello,

     It was my goal when beginning this blog to first provide a brief description of what technical communication entails. Not everyone has a class on technical communications, yet we all use some form of technical communications on a daily basis. According to the webpage provided by Society for Technical Communications ,technical communication is a broad field and includes any form of communication that exhibits one or more of the following characteristics:
  • Communicating about technical or specialized topics, such as computer applications, medical procedures, or environmental regulations.
  • Communicating by using technology, such as web pages, help files, or social media sites.
  • Providing instructions about how to do something, regardless of how technical the task is or even if technology is used to create or distribute that communication.
