The process I had for this assignment was I wanted to first do something that interested me. The second part of my thinking was I wanted it to be something that most, if not all of the students knew about. Those are the two reasons why I decided to do my instructions on the assembling and operation of an X-Box game system.
When I first choose this topic I thought it would be easy to put together because I have an X-Box game system. I’ve had it for five years and I play with it all of the time. However this was the wrong way to think about the assignment. For this assignment you have to have the audience in mind and all of the different scenarios which come with this. This means that you have to cater the instructions so that everyone from a newbie to an expert could assemble the X-Box game system.
With this now in mind, I decided to keep it simple, yet still professional. For my audience I decided to include pictures for each step and keep the understandable. Another thing I added that turned out good was the borders. I felt the borders kept everything in perspective.
The course goals that I meet in this assignment are as follows: communicating effectively with diverse audiences, designing convincing and usable documents and communicating ethically. With this document I had to be very ethical; especially, since this product will be used by people of different backgrounds and races. The people who will use this will be very diverse. I fell that the document that I designed and came up with is not only usable but it’s convincing too. I feel the document is very professional. If I tweaked a few things it would almost be good enough to be used by the Microsoft Company.
