Download or read book Writing Workplace Cultures written by Jim Henry and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Writing Workplace Cultures: An Archaeology of Professional Writing, Jim Henry analyzes eighty-three workplace writing ethnographies composed over seven years in a variety of organizations. He views the findings as so many shards in an archaeology on professional writing at the beginning of the twenty-first century. These ethnographies were composed by either practicing or aspiring writers participating in a Master’s program in professional writing and editing. Henry solicited the writers' participation in "informed intersubjective research" focused on issues and questions of their own determination. Most writers studied their own workplace, composing "auto-ethnographies" that problematize these workplaces' local cultures even as they depict writing practices within them. Henry establishes links between current professional writing practices and composition instruction as both were shaped by national economic development and local postsecondary reorganization throughout the twentieth century. He insists that if we accept basic principles of social constructionism, the text demonstrates ways in which writers "write" workplace cultures to produce goods and services whose effects go far beyond the immediate needs of its clients.
Download or read book Worlds Apart written by Patrick Dias and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worlds Apart: Acting and Writing in Academic and Workplace Contexts offers a unique examination of writing as it is applied and used in academic and workplace settings. Based on a 7-year multi-site comparative study of writing in different university courses and matched workplaces, this volume presents new perspectives on how writing functions within the activities of various disciplines: law and public administration courses and government institutions; management courses and financial institutions; social-work courses and social-work agencies; and architecture courses and architecture practice. Using detailed ethnography, the authors make comparisons between the two types of settings through an understanding of how writing is operative within the particularities of these settings. Although the research was initially established to further understanding of the relationships between writing in academic and workplace settings, it has evolved to examining writing as it is embedded in both types of settings--where social relationships, available tools, and historical, cultural, temporal, and physical location are all implicated in complex ways in the decisions people make as writers. Readers of this volume will discover that the uniqueness of each setting makes salient different aspects of writers and writing, resulting in complex, and potentially unsettling implications for writing theory and the teaching of writing.

Download or read book Workplace Writing written by Sharon J. Gerson and published by Pearson. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workplace Writing: Planning, Packaging, and Perfecting Communication presents easy-to-follow instructions for producing all forms of workplace communication, illustrated with interesting scenarios and examples featuring real people facing communication challenges on the job. In this textbook, the authors build upon the traditional writing process (prewriting, writing, and rewriting) with a unique approach that applies the writing process to both oral and written communication and uses terminology that relates to the world of work. This thoroughly classroom-tested approach to the communication process consists of the P3 Process: Planning, Packaging, and Perfecting. These three terms suggest to the reader that writing can be considered a product, much like the products that people buy and sell in business. In other words, people can plan their documents, package them, and then perfect the product for the reader. The P3 Process is brought to life by using real business people facing real communication challenges at work. -- from back cover.
