Abstract:
Many of the limitations inherent in technical-writing instruction on the World Wide Web can be overcome by intelligently designed web sites. Web-based instruction here refers to courses, in either the corporate or academic
setting, where most ofthe instructional materials are
supplied over the WorId Wide Web and where students and
instructors communicate and exchange writing projects
through e-mail. Acknowledging that few instructors have
the expertise or technical support to create such web
facilities, this paper makes available annotated Per1 source
code for instructors ’ use or customization.
