ENGL 393
1 September 2014 SELF DEFINATION In today's world if a person want to become prominent and successful he needs to attain a quality of education. In United States many student graduates from various majors like Biology, Math, Psychology, History or Chemistry. My major is Computer Science. Currently I am in Junior year at UMBC. (" University of Maryland Baltimore County"). My academic goal is to become a Programmer and gain expertise in technical communication skills like writing, speaking, presenting, and collaborating. As a writer I have little experience. I did lower level English courses and ENGLISH (101) course at " Frederick Community College". There I learned many things like verbs, noun, pronoun, run on sentences, and writing research paper. But, as English is not my first language I still do some grammatical mistakes. So, I decided to take Technical Communication class this semester at UMBC which I think will definitely help in improving my writing and other skills. Soft skills are necessary if I want to be a good programmer and I realized this when I did internship as a programmer. My instructor told me that if I want to be a good programmer and get importance of other people and colleagues I have to be a effective communicator as a writer, speaker, listener, presenter, analyzing things and creating reports. My goals in communication skills and learning objectives of my current technical communications course are closely related. Upon successfully completion of this class I will be able to communicate effectively, design usable and understandable documents, learn professional oral presentation, prepare workplace reports, writing professionally and much more. As a technical communications student I will improve by skills in writing, presenting, and communicating with other people. Because in class throughout whole semester I have lots of writing projects which will improve my writing as
