The first technical communicators were likely plucky entrepreneurs, philosophers, inventors, thinkers, and artists. They must have had ways and means to describe how to use the technology-whether written or verbal. As humans, we have needed to find effective ways to communicate what the technology we create does.
Respond to the following prompt in a minimum of 175 words:
1) Select a home appliance that you want to learn how to use.
2) Draft a 1 or 2 sentences statement that describes the human problem this device is meant to solve.
3) Practice your technical communication by explaining to your classmates and instructor how they would use it effectively.
4) Identify a possible challenge that your audience might have in understanding the purpose of this device or how to use it.
5) Propose a solution that would help them overcome that challenge.
