Instructions
You can use the online texts, any notes that you have, and the available course pages in Canvas for help as you work on these questions. You can also talk to one another.
What You Need to Do
Improve the usability of an email message to provide the reader with a more positive user experience. The original email includes long paragraphs and wordiness, both of which make it difficult for readers to find and put to use the information they really need.
How This Activity Connects to the Course
Every technical writing document should provide a positive user experience. In this activity, you practice strategies that make a document more reader-friendly as you revise an email message.
Assessment
Canvas automatically marks your work Complete when you submit it. All you have to do is TRY the activity. It’s okay if you make mistakes. Recognize however that if you have not put in an effort to do the work, I may remove the Complete mark.
