Technical Writing: What Is It?
While technical writers need to have good computer skills, they do not necessarily have to write about computers all their lives. The Greek word techne simply means skill .
http://jerz.setonhill.edu/resources/FAQ/TW.htm

Extractions: Dennis G. Jerz Weblog Teaching Resources ... About Technical writing is the presentation of information that helps the reader solve a particular problem. Technical communicators write, design, and/or edit proposals manuals web pages lab reports newsletters , and many other kinds of professional documents. 17 Apr 2000; by Dennis G. Jerz While technical writers need to have good computer skills, they do not necessarily have to write about computers all their lives. "Technical" comes from the Greek techne , which simply means "skill" Every profession has its own special specialized forms of writing . Police officers, lawyers and social workers all write specialized reports and someone has to learn, perform, critique, and teach each one . Every major politician hires staff members to design, administer, and analyze surveys and to write the secret reports that get leaked to reporters. Somebody has to design tax forms and the accompanying instruction books, assembly instructions for toys, and scripts for product demonstrations or multimedia presentations. For a large project, a technical writer may work with a graphic designer, an interface designer, several computer programmers, and a staff of freelance writers to design a huge web site. For a small project, or for a small company, the tech writer may be expected to do all of the above, all alone.

Extractions: The notes below apply to technical papers in computer science and electrical engineering, with emphasis on papers in systems and networks. Read Strunk and White, Elements of Style . Again. Give the paper to somebody else to read. If you can, find two people: one person familiar with the technical matter, another only generally familiar with the area. Papers can be divided roughly into two categories, namely original research papers and survey papers. There are papers that combine the two elements, but most publication venues either only accept one or the other type or require the author to identify whether the paper should be evaluated as a research contribution or a survey paper. (Most research papers contain a "related work" section that can be considered a survey, but it is usually brief compared to the rest of the paper and only addresses a much narrower slice of the field.) A good research paper has a clear statement of the problem the paper is addressing, the proposed solution(s), and results achieved. It describes clearly what has been done before on the problem, and what is new. The goal of a paper is to describe novel technical results. There are four types of technical results:

Extractions: HOME CONTACT QUICK JOIN SITEMAP ... Board Welcome! SIGDOC is the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group (SIG) on the Design of Communication (DOC). Until 2003, SIGDOC focused on documentation for hardware and software. With the shift in focus from systems to computer documentation to the design of communication, SIGDOC has better positioned itself to emphasize the potentials, practices, and problems of multiple kinds of communication technologies, such as Web applications, user interfaces, and online and print documentation. SIGDOC focuses on the design of communication as it is taught, practiced, researched, and conceptualized in various fields, including technical communication, software engineering, information architecture, and usability, etc. The traditional SIGDOC members were likely to be teachers, researchers, and/or practitioners of computer documentation. Today, members of SIGDOC include information design professionals, educators, researchers, software engineers, Web designers, system developers, usability specialists, computer scientists, user interface designers, and information technology specialists.

http://tc.eserver.org/dir/Technical-Writing

Extractions: Technical Writing, a form of technical communication , is a style of formal writing and business communication , used in fields as diverse as computer hardware and software, chemistry, the aerospace industry, robotics, finance, consumer electronics, and biotechnology. Good technical writing clarifies technical jargon; that is, it presents useful information that is clear and easy to understand for the intended audience. A Process Model For Creating Accessible End-User Documents Electronic information products can be made accessible to blind and low-vision individuals. This is easier to accomplish with thorough planning and execution. This paper describes a five-step model for creating accessible documentation. The steps are (1) Preparing a source file (2) Producing accessible output, (3) Testing output for accessibility, (4) Modifying a source file if needed, and (5) Modifying a production process if absolutely necessary.
