ENG 201


  The English 201 class has taught me a lot about technical writing and technical documents that I could incorporate in my other classes. The information that is taught in this class has been extremely important and beneficial to me because technical documents can be found in everyday life, and knowing how to read them is critical. For instance, if one knows how to read a billing statement you can always point out some over charge error. After I knew how important it is to read a technical document such as a billing statement, I went home and read my Comcast bill carefully and it turns out Comcast has been charging me for service I never ordered. So, I called them and have them remove it from my billing statement. I really think this technical class opens your eyes in little things which can be very important. An other thing I found very beneficial from this class is that I have learned how to write a résumé and cover letter which I never give much thought before.

  3. Pierre,

    It is great to see how you have applied the knowledge from this class to your everyday life. Bills are an excellent example of a technical document.
