Fundamentals of
Technical Writing
(2.0 units)
Writers who work with computers,
chemicals, scientific data, or clinical
data have different needs than the casual
business writer. This course goes beyond
the basics of business writing to focus on

various types of technical writing such as
research reports, grant proposals, review
articles, and monographs. Important
aspects of written technical communication
such as document organization, selecting
evidence, informing and persuading,
understanding the audience, and
references are stressed. Although a basic
understanding of English grammar is
assumed, the course covers writing
fundamentals that apply specifically to
technical writing such as tone, word choice,
organization, and the use of visual aids.

The profession of Child Life was created
to help children and their families deal
with the physical and emotional effects
of coping with illness, injury, disability,
and hospitalization. Dealing with these
challenges can cause children to be fearful,
confused, and feel isolated, possibly
inhibiting their natural development. Child
Life specialists are trained professionals
who use their knowledge of child
development and developmentally
appropriate interventions to educate,
prepare, and support children and their
families through illness, treatment, and
recovery.
This online seminar course is designed
for those interested in learning more about
the profession of Child Life and aspects
of pediatric healthcare. Topics covered
include Child Life theoretical foundations,
assessment, preparation, play, coping, the
therapeutic relationship, family-centered
care, documentation, grief and loss, and the
role of Child Life within the interdisciplinary
medical team. Attention is given to
understanding children and teens in the
context of their development as it relates to
interventions in medical settings. Interest
in or pursuit of Child Life Certification is not

Every manager and team member must
know how to create a trusting environment
to increase creativity, productivity, and
morale in their team. The decision to trust
is influenced by one's cultural norms,

turn impact how team members behave
in the workplace setting. Those behaviors,
driven by the desire to trust or be trusted,
can be similar or contrary. This course uses
lecture, class discussion, video analysis,
experiential activities, and a 4-factor
model for trust development to develop
the student’s understanding of culture’s
influence on the decision to trust in the

are both individually and collaboratively
based. Through hands-on activities,
students learn genres significant to their
fields of interest, such as writing usability
reports, proposals, formal business letters,
and cover letters. Oral presentations
supplement some writing assignments.
Additionally, research plays a core role in
the development of such genres, whereby
students produce documents exhibiting
historical knowledge, including ethical and
legal issues, in addition to adhering to fieldspecific norms for incorporating citations of
outside sources. In the process, students
learn how to become critical evaluators
of their own communication skills by
evaluating the written work of peers.
