Helps both engineers and students improve their writing skills by
learning to analyze target audience, tone, and purpose in order to
effectively write technical documents This book introduces students
and practicing engineers to all the components of writing in the
workplace. It teaches readers how considerations of audience and
purpose govern the structure of their documents within particular
work settings. The IEEE Guide to Writing in the Engineering and
Technical Fields is broken up into two sections: "Writing in
Engineering Organizations" and "What Can You Do With Writing?" The
first section helps readers approach their writing in a logical and
persuasive way as well as analyze their purpose for writing. The
second section demonstrates how to distinguish rhetorical
situations and the generic forms to inform, train, persuade, and
collaborate. The emergence of the global workplace has brought with
it an increasingly important role for effective technical
communication. Engineers more often need to work in
cross-functional teams with people in different disciplines, in
different countries, and in different parts of the world. Engineers
must know how to communicate in a rapidly evolving global
environment, as both practitioners of global English and developers
of technical documents. Effective communication is critical in
these settings. The IEEE Guide to Writing in the Engineering and
Technical Fields Addresses the increasing demand for technical
writing courses geared toward engineers Allows readers to perfect
their writing skills in order to present knowledge and ideas to
clients, government, and general public Covers topics most
important to the working engineer, and includes sample documents
Includes a companion website that offers engineering documents
based on real projects The IEEE Guide to Engineering Communication
is a handbook developed specifically for engineers and engineering
students. Using an argumentation framework, the handbook presents
information about forms of engineering communication in a clear and
accessible format. This book introduces both forms that are
characteristic of the engineering workplace and principles of logic
and rhetoric that underlie these forms. As a result, students and
practicing engineers can improve their writing in any situation
they encounter, because they can use these principles to analyze
audience, purpose, tone, and form.
