The technical writting class is more aimed at not necessarily the style of writting, but the preparation of certain types of documents. Such as letters, memos, proposals, etc.



We were instructed to draft a proposal in order to propose a change in anything that interested us. The topics varied from the legal age of consent, to shopping bags, starting a catholic chapter at our school, to pretty much anything. After my proposal the next step is to see how others in the reptile community feel about many WC snakes removed from their territory in the wild to be used as pets, when a perfectly healthy CB snake could be used as a pet. With benefits to not only the enviornment but also to the consumer.



I used the kingsnake forum, and I directed my question informally. But the proposal itself is sort of imaginary topic. I proposed that a petition be presented to CITES at their next Animal's Committee, to lower some of the animal quotas. So, I even had to add a budget (imaginary) which included airfare to Lima, Peru (where the meeting will be), rental car, food, and lodging.



It's more aimed at the document rather than the content, but the teacher wants the content to include actual data. I hope this helps explain things a little better.
