FEEDBACK

The hallmark of any quality organization is the degree to which it seeks feedback on its products and services. In that spirit, I ask for one final reflection on the things we have done this semester. Your response to the following will help me improve this course, beginning next semester.

We have engaged in a series of activities this semester, including several lectures, discussions, and in-class exercises. These included formal writing assignments. I ask for your thoughts on the following exercises:

We also had discussions on the origin of scientific writing (journal articles) and writing style, writing for oral presentations and power point, writing for the web, definitions, leaderships styles, etc.

Our goal was to increase your understanding of scientific and technical writing and to improve your ability to write documents of a scientific or technical nature. With that in mind, please comment on any exercise which was most valuable to you and write me a brief reflection on why that was so. (Comments on a second exercise will be greatly appreciated, too.) Similarly, which exercise was of least value, and briefly why? Finally, if you are aware of any significant elements of scientific or technical writing which we did not cover but which you feel would have been of benefit to you, briefly state what you felt was missing and I will attempt to address this in the future.

Note: Please write this in the format of a formal email (brevity emphasized) or a formal memorandum (TO | FROM | SUBJECT | DATE, and concise style).
