Discussion Post
As part of your job in nearly any career, you will need to be able to communicate through writing. You may be asked to create original written material that addresses a particular audience. To do this, you will need to organize your communication to ensure effective delivery of your message. In today's world, one common delivery method is social media. As many organizations move their internal communication online, sites like Yammer, Slack, and Microsoft Teams blend social media and professional communication. Whether or not you use social media, its content and influence are likely a part of your life in some way. Blogging is another writing form used not only for personal expression, but also for marketing, promoting, creating online communities, and engaging audiences, all of which are goals of social media. For this assessment, you will draft a social media or blog post to demonstrate your ability to construct an original piece of written work.
