Report on a Technical Communication Internship with a Newly Established Plant Nursery

Leary-Elderkin, Cathlene I.

Abstract Details

2005, Master of Technical and Scientific Communication, Miami University, English.
In this internship report, I describe my experience as a technical communicator for Midwestern Tropics Nursery (MTN), a newly established plant nursery associated with Miami University (Oxford, OH). The first chapter of this report introduces MTN, describes my role in the organization, and outlines the contributions I made to MTN during my internship. The second chapter summarizes the major projects I completed as an intern, including promotional materials, instructional guides, and an invention disclosure/plant patent application. The third chapter of this report highlights one of my major projects, the development of promotional materials, and how principles I learned during my MTSC coursework helped me to successfully complete this project. The concluding chapter of my internship report examines the evolving nature of MTN as an organization, and how this organizational environment influenced my writing process.
