    This site offers 110 suggestions made by actual bloggers on how to improve a blog! While a number of them cannot be applied to my course blog (I'm not collaborating with anyone else, for example), there was still plenty of relevant advice. Even though I am given the topics to cover, I can still let my own personality come through. This relates to the course outcome of performance; a blog needs to feel like it was written by a human being and not by a robot.  I could also start adding videos that contribute to my audience's understanding. I know that the sample rhetoric on the town assignment included a video of the advertisement the student had analyzed. Another good suggestion is to break up the paragraphs, which I try to do, or use bullet points. Another blogger suggests using subheads.

      This is a good comparable site to part of our team writing text. Several factors like editing and proofreading relate more to the details in part 2 chapter 6 in revising team member's work. In relation to part one it does express organization from the beginning and accountability. We have to set deadlines and brainstorm how to structure collaboration for this assignment.
  • Team writing makes invention strategies public and explicit (brainstorming, listing, outlining). Team writing encourages multiple perspectives and multiple drafts. Team writing demands revision, analysis of revision strategies, and makes revision public and explicit. Team writing focuses on the presentation of the final product, encouraging editing and proofreading. Team writing allows writers to recognize differences in style, tone, organization among different writers. Team writing forces writers to reflect on their own and others' strengths, weaknesses, and individual styles and processes of writing. Team writing demands analysis of rhetorical and stylistic choices.
  • FACTORS in SUCCESSFUL TEAM WRITING the degree to which goals are clearly articulated and shared the degree of openness and mutual respect among group members the degree of control writers have over the text the degree to which writers can respond to others who may modify the text the way credit (directly or indirectly) is given an agreed-upon procedure for responding to work in process and for revising/editing
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Set deadlines for drafts; devote one whole team meeting to responses/revision of drafts. Develop, as a team, a series of questions for each reader to ask about other writers' drafts; decide, as a team, what you want to look for in each writer's draft Before distributing drafts to the team, each writer should provide a cover letter with the draft, explaining what she/he tried to accomplish, pointing out strengths/weaknesses, and asking readers specific questions about problem areas. Write back to each writer and be prepared to discuss your responses. Provide both positive and negative feedback to writers. Be descriptive, pointing to particular sections or sentences, providing suggestions for revision and explanations of those changes.
  • As the team projects progress, ask students to monitor their progress in writing, by submitting weekly minutes, for example.
  • PLANS FOR COMPLETION What tasks are left to do? How have you divided/assigned them? What do you still need to find? Do you have enough/too much material for your presentation? TEAM PROCESS Describe the way your team is working together. How have you organized the work? Division of tasks? Lead writer? Lead researcher? Lead presenter? Any problems in the team process?

Social Media Technical Communication: Developing Audience-Centered Content | Content fo... - 1 views

  • This process is really how we already incorporate comments and feedback from our internal content reviewers. With social media, the notable difference is we are using new tools (something technical communicators already know how to leverage quite effectively) and collaborating with our customers first-hand, rather than the customer surrogates and product specialists (product management, marketing, sales, engineering, quality assurance, and customer support) who technical communicators ordinarily rely on for the audience and product information we are already responsible for integrating
  • Rich Maggiani describes social media as “all about community by engaging people through interactions and conversations around a shared goal” (p. 20). He goes on to propose a new model for technical communication, known as– “social media technical communication
  • Through social media, technical communicators are moving from a standard one-to-many communication, to a many-to-many communication, where the content becomes a “collaborative effort, combining the knowledge of all participants

    "Call it Web 2.0, or Enterprise 2.0; the fact of the matter is that online services just make more sense for businesses on a budget. Because these software platforms are web-based, users can use any computer to access them at work, at home or even on the road. They eliminate the need for expensive software and fewer IT employees are required for setup, updates and patches to systems. "

      This is an example on how the internet has revolutionized modern media, that before had been thought to be the most innovative, have been impacted by digital media.
  • Social media is the buzzword of the moment. It has even overtaken porn as the most popular activity on the web, and the term is being bandied about as a catch-all phrase to sum up everything broadcasters do online.
  • For us, social media is an editorial tool. It is a great source of tip-offs.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • For me, social media is about collaboration, participation and storytelling.
  • We haven’t segregated social media by having a person/team dedicated to it as, for example, The Sun does, because the most important thing is that everybody realises that every single person in our newsroom has to be social media savvy
  • You don’t necessarily want to put everybody’s opinion on air, but you can see trends and it helps with your impartiality and openness.
  • James Kirkham Five years ago, it was about building a fanbase early doors, so by the time the show came on, everyone knew about it. But now social media has become an awful lot more. It still facilitates conversation but, at its best, it takes that conversation and allows viewers to have an impact on a show.
  • Social media is at the heart of everything MTV does. We now test talent and programming on social media audiences before we make commissioning decisions. We see it as a form of marketing, providing social currency for our brands.
  • Suddenly everyone, from marketing to PR to digital, has to work together and recognise each other’s disciplines, which is quite difficult.
  • people are constructing their own storylines. Programme-makers are no longer such strict storytellers.
  • My worry is that because we can see social media and it’s cheap for research, we will stop trying to have those conversations face to face. We need to always remember that some people don’t want to use social media to talk.
  • So you have to bear in mind that social media can be amazingly superficial and sometimes, ultimately, meaningless.
  • Social media might be fine for certain demographics, but it’s not going to be your whole audience.

    I like this website because it talks about how team writing can benefit everyone in the group. However, this talks about it in the view of a writing team. It is definitely worth a look.
