Reflection: The Press Release is a document that announced the release of my partner and I’s product, which is the Day Dreamer. For this press release, it covers a few of the course outcomes that we focused on in class. The first course outcome that the press release relates to is to analyze and produce writing genres commonly found in the professional world (e.g., business, gov., media). This outcome relates to the press release because it is a professional document that people use daily. It can be done globally whether in the business, government, or media companies. I think that it is important that we learned how to write a press release and analyze it based on our non-existent product. It made us think outside the box and be very creative. Another course outcome that the press release relates to is to create professional documents that use plain English (clear, concise, and grammatically correct). This outcome is important because press release’s need to very clear, organized, and easy for readers to understand so they know exactly what the promoter is talking about in their release. It is important to make sure that all the information being released is accurate and correct since they will be sent out all over the world. Even though we had to make up the information for this document, we had to make sure that it sounded like a real press release that could be sent out to people. I think that by doing this document it gave us practice if we were ever to go into the business world and sell a product. The last outcome that this document relates to is to participate productively in collaborative projects. My partner and I did a great job of collaborating with each other and working on this document together. It was our first time working on a press release, so it was a little challenging coming up with the information for this document. My partner and I worked well together on this document to complete it to the best of our abilities. Even though it took some time to c0mplete, I think that it turned out to be a great first press release that we have ever done.
