As professional Technical Communicators, we constantly
struggle with the question 'Is what we produce being
used and is it making a difference?' Too often, we base our measures of success on our own views of what makes a good document, Help system, or other information product.
Through broader and more detailed analysis, and by
measuring success based on how our information
products affect others, we can increase the effectiveness
of our information products and increase our value to our
users and companies. View all 2240 works published by STC Proceedings |
