Technical Writing Process
The writing process takes you from the very beginning of a writing project—finding topics and
analyzing audience and purpose—all the way to the end—writing and revising the rough draft.
The following sections focus on the key phases of that process:
Peer-reviewing (also called peer-editing) means people getting together to read,
comment on, and recommend improvements on each other's work. Peer-reviewing is a good
way to become a better writer because it provides experience in looking critically at writing.
Team-writing, as its name indicates, means people getting together to plan, write, and
revise writing projects as a group, or team. Another name for this practice is collaborative
writing-collaborative writing that is out in the open rather than under cover (where it is known
as plagiarism).
