PD11: Processes for Technical Report Writing gives students the tools they need to write compelling, thorough technical reports. Great reports aren’t just thrown together with abandon: they take focused research, careful consideration of the intended audience, and a thorough review process to reach their potential. Students who take PD11 begin developing the analytical, critical thinking, and report writing skills necessary for clear, compelling reports.
Dr. Dolmage is a professor in the Department of English Language and Literature at the University of Waterloo, and the associate chair of the Undergraduate Communication Outcome Initiative (UCOI). He studied English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of British Columbia and then completed an MA in Creative Writing and English Literature at the University of Windsor, and fell in love with teaching writing.
He has always been involved in disability rights issues and advocacy, and during work towards his PhD at Miami University of Ohio, he discovered that he could bring his interest in disability into the study and teaching of rhetoric and writing. His recent book Disability Rhetoric focuses on the rhetorical history of disability. He is also the founding editor of the Canadian Journal of Disability Studies.
