Writing Fundamentals is designed to follow up on the skills learned in other communications classes. You learned many of these skills in the context of transferable writing in TCOM 102 and TCOM 103, so you are well under way to realizing the importance of these writing abilities in workplace writing.

The following appendices provide a review of some of the basic conventions and expectations of writing fundamentals that you should be familiar with and that are relevant to technical writing.
