This module is about effectively communicating through written communication. It includes a review on common errors in English tailor-fitted to novice to relatively experienced Filipino writers. The module discusses basic rules in effective composition and provides hands-on practice. At the end of the module, the discussion will be primarily focused on specific needs of the Engineers. The below Section V shows a sample format of a technical report required from Engineers. Given the many formats different companies follow, we can also tailor-fit it to the preferred format.
