520 | |a "The revised edition of A Research Primer for Technical Communication : Methods, Exemplars, and Analyses provides an introduction to research methods in technical communication. This practical volume provides a thorough introduction to conducting and critically reading research in technical communication, complete with exemplars of research articles for study. The book is presented in two sections. The first section discusses the role of research in technical communication and explains in plain language how to conduct and report such research. The second section is a collection of articles from journals that serve as exemplars of the major types of research projects, followed by commentary breaking down how it corresponds to the information on that research type. In addition to five new chapters of exemplars, this second edition contains a new chapter dedicated to usability studies. Fit for both researchers and conscientious readers, this book is an essential introduction to research methods for students of technical communication as well as for those in industry who need to do research on the job"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
