Technical Communication: Design and Production
Learn to design technical documents and publications at Simon Fraser University -- Continuing Studies
http://www.sfu.ca/techcomm
Technical communication doesn't stop with writing.
Simon Fraser University instructor Ellen Ashdown describes an online technical document design course called Design and Production of Technical Publications.
The course is part of a Continuing Studies certificate in technical communication—offered entirely online.
In the course, you will learn how design relates to
Conduct exit interviews
It is essential that the exit
interview be well-planned, conducted properly and that extensive notes are taken.
This will ensure that all areas are covered for the exiting employee and that the
likelihood for a dispute later on is severely diminished. Information gathered in
the exit interview can also be used as feedback on how the organisation can improve
its processes and procedures. This resource demonstrates how to plan and conduct an
exit interview and how feedback
Life on the Moon
In this lesson, students learn about the physical properties of the Moon. They compare these to the properties of the Earth to determine how life would be different for astronauts living on the Moon. Using their understanding of these differences, they are asked to think about what types of products engineers would need to design for us to live comfortably on the Moon.
Conduct a job evaluation
Job evaluation is a logical
process. Most systems work by giving a weighting to key factors in a job that affect
how much someone is paid. We call these 'compensable factors'. One approach is to
have a range of points that you choose from, as you compare your 'real' job factors
against a model. You'll probably have heard of this as the 'points'
system.
Structural Mechanics II and Exercises
After showing how to use "conjugate simultaneous linear equation" to express both "equilibrium equation" and "transformation equation" of the mechanics of truss structure as well as using an identity equation which is just as simple as linear algebra, we are going to explain how to prove the law of virtual work, and also explain the significance of it through examples.
Prà ctiques de programació
No existeixen receptes mà giques per a trobar solucions factibles a tots els problemes als que un programador es pot enfrontar al llarg de la seva vida professional. La única manera de que l'estudiant desenvolupi les capacitats d'abstracció de problemes i plantejament eficient de solucions, és mitjançant la creació dels seus propis mecanismes, cosa que només s'aconsegueix amb la prà ctica. Per tant, aquesta serà una assignatura majorità riament prà ctica, on l'estudiant haurà d'afrontar
Health Science

3.11 Summary
How does the computer's peculiar binary world of digital entities differ from our analogue world of colour, sound, taste and touch? This unit explores the way in which information, in the form of text, still and moving images, and sound can cross the boundary from the analogue universe into a digital world.
Brain: The Inside Story's "Your Thinking Brain"
If there is one thing that makes you different from other animals, it is your extraordinary ability to think. Like other thinking species, humans don't just react to the world as it is: We reflect on the past, imagine what could be, and then plan ways to make our thoughts become reality. Our brain's advanced outer layer, or cortex, enables us to remember past events and predict the future consequences of our actions before we make decisions. We can think about thinking, and use language to excha
Brain: The Inside Story's "Your Changing Brain"
Your brain began forming before you were born, building the intricate network of neurons that help you survive in the world. Once developed, the basic structures for sensing, feeling, and thinking last a lifetime—yet your brain continues to change. The neural connections keep making adjustments with every experience and everything that you learn.
