Abstract:
This paper compares the treatment of Website development in business communication textbooks to that in technical communication textbooks. Compared to technical communication textbooks, those in
business communication give relatively little attention to Website development. We suggest that
graduates of business communication courses may require some background in Website development in
order to perform or oversee Website development activities effectively once they enter professional
positions. Given these situations, we outline core concepts and competencies related to Website
development for students in business communication.
