The University Writing Program at UF offers a number of Technical Writing/Professional Communication classes and an instruction manual is generally one of the assignments that students work on. I think we will have some UWP instructors at THATCamp Gainesville and I am sure they will be interested in this session!

Are there unique skills that DHers have from the humanities (e.g., writing, rhetoric, intercultural competencies) that might make them particularly well poised to write user texts? Thanks for proposing this!
