Developing a Content Strategy Course and Interdisciplinary Skills: A Teaching Case

Abstract

The content strategy course has gained more interest for inclusion in the technical communication curriculum. However, content strategy combines a range of interdisciplinary skills, and technical communication scholarship has only briefly discussed how best to teach content strategy and whether we should devote a standalone course to the topic. This teaching case describes a content strategy course that combines the necessary content strategy skills students require and demonstrates how future research on course development in this area could further guide the technical communication field.
