Since that writing resources collection already had grown to the bursting point, and spawned separate pages from other sections, I decided to create a new page for the business writing tips, too. Then, to the new page (Business Writing), I added an RSS feed to automatically update the writing tips displayed on it. The tips there from ULiveandLearn focus in particular on writing email, for example, Why Format is Important with Email (2008.10.23).
However, many of those tips are readily applicable to other online writing media, for instance, blogs and social networking services, and to written communication of various kinds, such as report writing. They include suggestions for using non-sexist and reader-friendly language suitable for wide audiences. So I recommend browsing through them from the new Business Writing page, and reviewing the other LTD Project Wiki Writing Resources page, too.

I've also added to the Course Links list a link to a post defining literary and rhetorical devices: Devices you say.... Anyone care to try some?
ReplyDeleteI found that literary devices link in a sidebar on Mrs. G's World, among other interesting resources, such as a Multiple Intelligence Test from a Canadian government job Training and Careers site. You never know what you'll find when you look around the blogosphere!
