Teaching Technical Writing in Canada.
Eldridge, Elaine
Journal of Technical Writing and Communication, v20 n2 p177-87 1990
Reports the 1987 survey results of 70 Canadian colleges and universities regarding technical writing programs. Finds that half of the 35 responding institutions offer professional writing courses and that faculty attitudes range from enthusiastic to disapproving. Reveals that faculties at nonoffering institutions do not view technical writing as a legitimate subject. (KEH)
