Audience Profile (Jan 19, 21)
Today in class we were taught about document design. We learned about several techniques to apply to your documents and learned what not to do. This presentation will help me a lot with creating my next assignment (the personal powerpoint slide). I'm happy we got more clarifications on the format of our interview assignment. There were a lot of things that I was unsure of and I can fix the things I did wrong.
8. A promotional message on your company's e-retailing website, announcing a temporary price reduction on high-definition television sets.
The audience is the customer's who frequent my company's website and consumer's seeking high definition televisions. The audience is excited that they save money on a new high-definition television set. The audience needs to know if there is a limit on the number of TVs they may purchase, exactly how much the reduction is, and what the return policy is if they are not satisfied.
11. A cover letter sent along with your resume to a potential employer.
The audience is the potential employer and anyone else responsible for reviewing applicants. The audience is neutral, they must treat your cover letter and resume the same way they treat the other applicants. The audience needs to know my name, birth date, educational background, and past employers and job descriptions.

Dropping and Chapter 1 (Jan 12, 14)
This past week we were taught how to embed a word document into our bogs. The process seemed very simple. However, the drop did not work on my blog. I spent a good amount of the class period and some time at home trying to make the drop work. I was very unsuccessful. It could be an issue with my browser or my computer system. This week we also talked a lot about chapter one. It was a very good introduction and background on the basics of business communication. I'm very happy to say I did very well on the pre-test and post-test.

Class Expectations
This semester in Business Writing 304 I expect to learn a number of valuable things. I've never really known how to correctly format a resume to apply for jobs. I did create one resume in high school to apply for college. However, I think the resume format to apply for jobs is significantly different than the one I created in high school. I also look forward to learning how to format other essential business documents.
