A shorthand course designed to develop writing speed with the use of specialized vocabulary is outlined and described. Skill development in the nonshorthand elements of transcription (punctuation, spelling, grammar, and vocabulary building) is emphasized. Class activities are organized in conjunction with the textbook, "Gregg Shorthand for Colleges, Volume Two, Series 90." Suggested instructor and student materials, an explanation of the student evaluation system, an explanation of the course's instructional design, an outline of shorthand diagnostic activities, suggestions for classroom activities, a list of student performance objectives, a business vocabulary-builder quiz, and an evaluation instrument are included.
