Abstract Details

2010, Master of Technical and Scientific Communication, Miami University, English.
This report describes my projects and major activities during my internship with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). As a graduate assistant in the Office of Research and Development (ORD), I worked directly with field researchers and subject matter experts to develop technical and non-technical publications for public distribution. This report provides a high level description of the organizational structure and culture at ORD, descriptions of several projects I worked on, including an informative brochure on arsenic contamination and a web site supporting Drinking Water Distribution Systems Research. This report also highlights my contributions to ORD as a graduate assistant, and my analysis of the application of Paul Anderson’s Problem Solving Model to my main project. A summary of my main project, developing a web site for the Drinking Water Distribution System Research program, and a detailed description of the development process are also included.
