SUBJECT: Progress Report on the Website assignment
for Technical Report Writing
The purpose of this
website is to put together a series of different letters and documents in an
orderly form on the internet.
The following 6
objectives are to be met by October 14, 2002. All six are being worked on at
about the same time, and do not require any specific order in which to be met.
They will all be completed at the same time:
-Task 1: Create a
Splash Page
-Task 2: Create a
Website Analysis Memo
-Task 3: Write an
Informal Report
-Task 4: Put
together an Analytical Resume
-Task 5: Letter
Exercises
-Task 6: Write an
article about Email Netiquette
The assignments are
going along well and as planned, and should be completed and ready to upload
around Friday, October 11, just before the weekend.
On August 26, we received
an assignment of putting together a website that would show off different
documents in technical report writing.
-Task 1: Create a
Splash Page - Put together a main page on the website that is easy to navigate.
-Task 2: Create a
Website Analysis Memo - Put together a memo that analyses a company website
based on persuasiveness.
-Task 3: Write an
Informal Report - Put together a progress report that displays the results of
the work I've done so far.
-Task 4: Put
together an Analytical Resume - Create a resume that is professional and ready
to be handed out.
-Task 5: Letter
Exercises - Create memos and letters to companies and consumers.
-Task 6: Write an
article about Email Netiquette - Put together an article on the uses of email
and how to appropriately use it.
RESULTS OF
RESEARCH
The
-Task 1: Creating a
splash page will probably be the last thing that I do. Once I create my other
papers and get them uploaded to the site, then I can concentrate on getting a
main page up and what it will look like.
-Task 2: Creating a
Website Analysis Memo is much easier than I originally thought it would be. I
evaluated the Ford website and found there was much information to write about
and it is easy to explain.
-Task 3: This
informal report is in progress currently, and will be completed about a week or
so before the final product is finished.
-Task 4: This Resume
was the first thing started, and will probably be the last thing finished. It
is something that I've done many times before, but it needs to be updated and
tweaked so it has current information and looks professional.
-Task 5: I have
almost completed 3 letter exercises. They are all memos and letters that
businesses send out to accomplish tasks like orders and adjustment letters.
-Task 6: The Email
Netiquette article went very smooth and was one of the first assignments I had
completed. I found some good information on the internet that helped me thought
the assignment, and now I have a strong paper that gives the benefits and uses
of email.
CONCLUSION
The project is going
along at a good pace. If there are no delays in writing the papers and
uploading them to the website, the assignment should be completed at the
scheduled time.
