Writing Portfolio Entry 6:

Response to the question: 
"How ENGL 2310: Technical English will be useful/ useless to me?"

I believe that every English course that I have taken has only contributed to a greater understanding of the technical aspects of the English language, as well as a furthered mastery of its descriptive and professional uses. This is true again for 2310 Technical English. Both in course content and assignments, I have found new skills and tools that I will be using in my career field. Since Graphic Design is a career filled with communication, both written and visual, a strong ability both to compose written material for projects as well as in reports and business writing, is integral to the success of every job.  We have been trained to strive for written perfection every time we produce a piece. Both in our typography, and in our structural use of the English language. One would hate to lose a preposition for a contract, or a position in a firm, due to a simple spelling error. So I approach this class with as much fervor and attention as I would any of my other graphic design courses, knowing full well that the content that we are instructed on, could make or break my success as a designer once I have completed my University courses.
