Reflection on Technical Writing Class

A business cover letter is a writing which main purpose is to introduce oneself to the

organization and mostly draw attention to the resume. It should be brief and to the point by

summing up the resume and is a polite request for the job. A resume is a letter requesting for

employment. It contains a persons skills, background and experiences. It should be well detailed

with the required information of the applicant both personal and professional. Extended

definitions refer to a paragraph or two that tries to explain a complex term or phrase. They are

mostly included in the report where it is necessary to explain in order to avoid misinterpretation

of some words. A group work plan is an outline of set goals that are required in order to prepare a

project. It enables one to break down processes into workable and achievable tasks. A memo is a

short document that is used for communication in the office. It is used to convey information

within the organization internally.

This assignment has enabled me to understand the need to be polite and detailed when

writing an application for a job. It has also made me appreciate the essence of proper grammar in

writing documents that convey information to many people. A work plan has guided me in

planning for my projects and developing a work schedule in order to ensure all the work is

covered. The concepts learnt in this class will help when am trying to secure a job. It will be

easier for me to write a good application letter when applying for new employment posts

The easiest part of this class was learning how to write the memoranda and the short

notices. Application letters for the jobs were also very easy and interesting to learn. The most

difficult part was trying to come up with a detailed work plan. I applied a lot of effort and lot of

practiced frequently in order to overcome the challenges previously encountered.
