[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Buy the book The Craft of Research for excellent writing training.[/quote] Different poster. Which edition of book? There are 4. Watching this post with interest. DS (16) is the usual suspect; strong math, science, business kid. Will pursue CS combined with business. Writing is his weakness. I am a writer, so I failed my son lol. He uses fancy words appropriately, but his sentence structure is abysmal. Keep explaining that writing is absolutely critical for business and CS. I'm exhausted from the effort. [/quote] Technical writing is way different than writing prose. You might have actually saved him by not teaching him how you write and he can just learn how engineers write. [/quote] Thank you! Just one kind reply made a difference in my day. I'll get back to backing off. [/quote]
