• In this class I've learned about the 5 C’s

• Clear

• Concise

• Complete

• Correct

• Courteous

• I used these 5 C’s to write all of my papers and

made them all good by following these

guidelines.

• When designing documents you must create

one that is very understandable and creates good

will.

• A good Document will often avoid problems

and legal troubles in the future.

• Use headings and margins in the correct format

when designing a document to make your

document easy to read.

• Also have headings so that the reader can find

the information that they want to read fast.

• When designing slides for a presentation keep

your slides consistent and informative.

• Avoid using many animations because it may

distract the readers from the information you

are trying to relay.

• Try not to use the templates provided on the

slides make your own boxes and headings to

make your slides seem creative and like you

put work into them.

• Use bullet points to separate your ideas and

big font to help readers see it, also use clear

and concise information with relatable clipart.

• If possible try to use short reports more

often than long reports.

• In these reports only use information that

is relevant and Important not the

unnecessary things that you google

searched or found.

• These short reports are used for helping

businesses make a decision.

• Use headings so that the readers can

quickly find the information they need.

• Short reports are also used for problem solving and

proposing different alternatives.

• In short Reports you must convince your business

and audience why your solution is better than the

current one in use.

• In an informative report you use information that

you have found and show what you have done,

Feasibility reports propose alternatives and

recommend one to the company, and Justification

reports help tell why that recommendation is good

and how it can help the company.

• Use specific and polite questions when doing the

reports.

• When finding information make sure all

the information is from a credible source

not just information that is full of bad

information.

• Do not use Wikipedia unless its 100%

necessary but you can use it for the

websites they get the info from.

• When analyzing information make sure

you remain unbiased about the subject and

analyze from both sides or view points.

• When analyzing information find the

necessary points so that you can narrow

down the important information that you

need.

• When Documenting information you must make sure that you run a spell check and look over your report for any grammar errors.

• Also make sure the report is written so that your audience can understand what you are trying to relay to them.

• Make sure to use MLA or APA to properly write and citate your paper• Use times new roman 12 pt font• Double spaced• Indent in the first paragraph.

• With Persuasive messages you need to convince your

audience to buy your product or go with what you are

saying.

• In persuasive messages you need to give your audience

some incentive to read and respond to your message.

• If there is no incentive or reward people are less likely

to want to hear them.

• Also you need to approach audiences that are more

acceptable to your message so that they can be more

open to making the change and doing what you want

them to do.

• Proposals are used to present your project idea to management.

• A good proposal is straight to the point and directly lets the manager know how the certain product or idea will help the company

• If there is no incentive and no real benefit to readers of your proposal then it will most likely be unheard and uninterested.

• Progress reports show how well an individual is doing at the task that they are assigned to.

• It allows a manager to know where the employee is at and gives a timetable to when the project will be completed.

• Social media is a growing thing in the US and all over the world.

• It Helps businesses connect with clients and share ideas and deals worldwide.

• Social media is not a fad rather something that will be around for a long time and continue to grow,

• Social media is also a way to post resumes, Connect with friends, or even express your ideas.

• Main social media websites are• Facebook• Twitter• YouTube• Flickr

• I learned the material by reading the book and

watching the useful presentations.

• The writing assignments also helped with my

learning because they were linked with the

readings and were relevant and fun.

• I learned by doing and following the instructions

and always using the 5 C’s while doing any

assignment.

• The analysis assignments were the most fun and

information because it made me think a lot.

• One may ask how is this pertinent in my life

or how is this useful?

• I think its useful because one day we will be

part of a business and we will have to do a lot

of professional writing to clients and co

workers

• Also it allows us to understand how to

correctly write a proposal a short report and

allows us to better understand how to use

social media.

• This information is very significant because it

allows us to be more professional in all of our

writings.

• Also it could help with job interviews and

writing persuasive messages and proposals to

companies.

• It also helps us improve grammar and our

analysis skills. And shows us the correct

formats to use.

• I plan to use this Information very often

in my every day life.

• After college I will use al that I learned

in the workplace and have a better

understanding on how to write short

reports or persuasive reports.

• I can also use this to understand how to

attract audiences to my message and

persuade them to buy into my ideas.

• The goals I will set with this information

is to use it to look more professional and

get a high paying job.

• This will also be used a lot for me in my

business major because I will have to

write a lot of professional papers.

• So to me I will use the information I learn

a lot in my everyday life. It will also

improve my analytical skills.
