Now that you’ve read about ethics in Technical Writing, it’s time to put those concepts to use!
In this week’s readings, we’ve looked at why technical writing should strive to be factually accurate and avoid illegally using other entities’ materials. Consider this, however: Might there be a situation where an aspect of a technical communication (be it speech, email, manual, etc.) could be unethical but not result in anything illegal?
Think of such a situation, and write 2-3 paragraphs (each being at least 3 sentences each) describing the situation, and discussing why or why not that unethical behavior should still be avoided in technical work. Your document should:
Be 12 pt, Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins, double spaced.
Be 2-3 paragraphs long (with a minimum of 3 sentences per paragraph).
