During our professional writing course, we were able to write a press release to go along with our brochure. Our press release was designed to announce our brand new product that we displayed with our brochure. To recap, our brand new product is call the iCaffeine. Before taking this specific class, I have never had the opportunity to write a press release on any kind of topic. I really liked being able to do this because when we are in our future careers, we may also have to design brochures and press releases to go along with them as well. When looking at the press release, there are a couple of course outcomes that this specific project meets. For example, “Analyze and produce writing genres commonly found in the professional world (e.g., business, gov., media), and create professional documents that use plain English (clear, concise, and grammatically correct). I really liked this specific project as well because it allowed me to work on my persuasion skills as I will have to use them in my future career. I also really liked having the opportunity to complete this task because it allowed me to further my skills on using plain English.
