Many people may purchase or be gifted such devices without knowing their potential for connecting with other home technology, listening to private conversations, sharing information with companies, and creating problems due to misunderstanding vocal commands or technological capabilities. Concerns and worries about these devices may be exacerbated over time or by a specific incident. To understand reactions to such situations, we conducted semi-structured in-depth interviews with ten people who reported different types of worrying incidents with a range of smart home devices and their reactions to reduce that worry. The two dominate reactions were restricted acceptance or discontinuance of the smart home technology, while three other interviews revealed nuanced reactions on the acceptance-rejection continuum.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131549840","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}

Our teaching case implements heuristic evaluation through focusing on a technical model from the show intended for testing baking knowledge by providing a limited set of instructions. This lack of instruction, we argue, is an area worth researching further to bridge popular culture into the technical communication classroom. This teaching case displays one way to show students how heuristic evaluation can connect writers with users and provides further understandings of audience analysis.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"105 -108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131622779","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}

To help build a common foundation for all students from different English backgrounds/levels, such content might be included in a first semester required course. This paper describes how we developed, pilot-tested, and evaluated a strategy to integrate communication content into an online introductory engineering course of ~500 students. We developed an asynchronous curriculum covering micro (words and sentences), macro} (paragraphs, overall documents, and evidence-based writing), and professional (netiquette and tonality especially in emails) writing skills. Assessments’ results show that students mostly understood and applied macro and professional skills, and to a slightly lesser extent, micro writing skills. This indicates that they were more engaged in modules relevant to their engineering disciplines than basic English writing skills. Our analysis thus suggests that the integrated modules in this introductory course are essential to introduce discipline-specific communication skills to engineering students.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131179385","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}

This is particularly true for visual communication, which is inextricably tied to technical skills. If pedagogy focuses on design principles and tool skills, we risk preparing makers who may not understand the ways visual information wields power, shapes perceptions, and reflects deeply embedded social practices. Re-envisioning the position of liberal arts in professional communication curricula can foster the foundation needed to craft effective visual rhetoric for a diversity of users and communication problems.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124308535","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 authors developed a close working relationship in the Midwestern United States. One followed employment opportunities to Doha, Qatar where they continued collaborating on many projects. The case study focuses on designing an asynchronous multi-modal text to be remotely presented on a third continent, Australia, while simultaneously addressing a new audience of design professionals through this paper on a fourth continent, Ireland and Europe. We suggest methods for sustaining a transatlantic collaboration over several years as part of a small and temporary work team. Additionally, we describe unexpected challenges and advantages that we encountered across four continents. We argue that the challenges resulted less from the distance of collaboration and were rather placebound to the respective geographic locations of the authors, and were also related to the collaborative remediation of scholarly work from print to video.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"460 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125748422","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}

Professionally and academically, engineers need to communicate their work to their peers, clients, and managers. However, technical writing is generally not well addressed in the engineering curriculum. The goal of this study was to enhance the writing skills of chemical engineering B.Eng. students who took two core laboratory courses at an international engineering school where English is spoken as a second language. Our approach was to train the undergraduate students, train the graduate students in charge of grading the lab reports, revise the grading rubrics, and provide constructive feedback on the lab reports. To assess the success of our approach, we asked students to submit two writing assignments before and after our intervention, and submit their responses to our surveys at the end of the semester. The results showed that the majority of students and graduate assistants agreed on the positive impact of the intervention on students’ communication skills.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131357071","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}

However, it is unclear how graduate students view departmental advisory boards as resources for strengthening their research, teaching, and professional development. To answer this question, this paper details findings of a qualitative study that investigates graduate student perspectives about the value of technical communication advisory boards in graduate education. Graduate students at a large Midwestern university participated in a brief survey and follow-up interviews to discuss how they found value in their department’s technical communication advisory board (TCAB). Additionally, we wrote brief, autoethnographic reflections on participant feedback to interrogate our own positionalities and bias related to TCAB. We found that students felt pressure to craft professional academic identities and were unsure of how TCAB could be part of those identities, indicating that they felt there was a divide or gap between academia and industry practice. However, we argue that through thoughtful framing that allows for an expansive view of technical communication, advisory boards can play a key role in graduate students’ professionalization for a variety of careers.","PeriodicalId":286504,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference (ProComm)","volume":"219 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132442216","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}
