Articles containing such words and phrases are lengthy and tiresome to read, and often have their basic meaning obscured. Cliches, round-about expressions, and long words may be likened to solder splatter in a hand-wired chassis. Splatter gives the job an unprofessional appearance and may interfere with circuit operation. This article identifies many of the more common splatter-expressions that creep into engineering writing. It is based on a six-month study during which words and phrases deleted from articles published in Electronics magazine were accumulated and tabulated.","PeriodicalId":118434,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Writing and Speech","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116698384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the case of writing, however, the \"inspector\" is the technical editor or a supervisory engineer. His terms of reference are the engineering writing standards laid down in a standards handbook prepared by those responsible for the production of technical publications. The proposed \"quality-controlled\" engineering writing program has two major advantages: 1) It is simple to implement since it follows comparable established engineering and quality-control practices, to which engineers are accustomed. 2) It is imposed from within the department directly concerned with engineering writing, and is thus entirely independent of outside control.","PeriodicalId":118434,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Writing and Speech","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134124618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The critical factors in such improvement are correctness, completeness, and comprehensibility. These subjects can be taught through the use of simple student exercises specially designed to permit controlled emphasis on, and objective evaluation of, correctness, completeness, and comprehensibility; the same exercises make it possible to judge student competence in handling the less important mechanics. This approach has been tested and can be widely applied to improve the quality of our engineering writing.","PeriodicalId":118434,"journal":{"name":"IRE Transactions on Engineering Writing and Speech","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1961-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125844196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
