The Technical Communication Writing Center is a free student service provided by the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology.
The Center gives you the opportunity to sit with an experienced 'reviewer' who can assist you with improving your writing and speaking. Reviewers can help you plan, organize, and revise your documents or oral presentations to address audience, purpose, and context more effectively. They are especially prepared to help students with writing assignments from Engineering and Technology faculty, but can assist with other writing tasks as well.
Come in early while your document or oral presentation is still in the idea stage. Reviewers can help you understand the assignment, brainstorm ideas, and clarify them. Or, come later when you have a draft. Reviewers can let you hear a reader's response, help you identify potential problems for readers, and suggest ways to improve your document.
