Students are introduced to the usage of computer tools in Technical writing - from word processing to desktop publishing to operating systems and basics of using a network. They will not be expected to become experts in these areas, but should be able to evaluate tools and understand compatibility issues, and learn to choose and use the appropriate tool for the job.
