RE: Tech Writing CurriculumWhy not teach open source tools? A great deal of their development has Actually, John, that's another option we're pursuing (in more spare time!), and it's the option our computer lab manager keeps urging. He's been great at sniffing out free/shareware comparables for some of the bigger tools, and as soon as several of us have time (that's why they invented Christmas vacation, right? Celebrate the holiday gathered round the glowing light of the monitor, listening to the whir of the CD drive . . .), we're going to look through them for viable choices. If you (any of you, actually) have any other particular open-source, freeware, or shareware alternatives we could use to give students core skills, I'd love to hear about them.
