Loved this course so much! Opened my mind a lot of new things I had no idea about. I also enjoyed the further readings, they were more in-depth and were great reads overall.

I would like to be able to give this first module a 5-star rating, BUT the lessons contained quite a bit of spelling and grammatical errors. Not only that, but the last test before completing said first module had two questions that were not only confusing (got them wrong, apparently), but seemed to have directly contradicted the information that was presented in this first module. They were as follows: Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of effective technical documents? Clarity and precision Use of jargon and technical terms Consistency in formatting and style Minimal use of visuals and examples (this is what I selected, because I thought use of jargon and technical terms aren't universal, even within respective audiences. Incorrect: (answer) Visuals and examples can enhance understanding in technical documents. AND: Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of effective technical documents? Incomplete information Visual aids and illustrations to enhance understanding A clear table of contents and headings Complex language and jargon (this is what I chose, because what does "incomplete information" even mean?) Incorrect: (answer) Effective technical documents aim for clarity and simplicity.
