An Engineering Report Writing Course That Works.

Estrin, Herman A.

Students' verbatim comments reflect the enthusiasm toward writing which is generated by the course. The author discusses the course design, citing the texts used, including readings from master, technical report writers. Description of the curriculum leads progressively from textual analysis through the final phase in which students are urged to publish their own articles. (RL)
