Textual Analysis with Computers to Improve the Writing Skills of Business Communication Students.

Sterkel, Karen S.; And Others

Journal of Business Communication, v23 n1 p43-61 Win 1986

Assessed the effects of students' use of "Writer's Workbench" (a collection of computer textual analysis programs) in the business communication class. Found that assignment grades improved by the third semester, which may reflect the extensive refinements the authors made to the programs after the first two semesters. (PD)
