Dear Fellow Technical and Professional Communication (TPC) Faculty,
We are a team of TPC faculty and student assistants from California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo researching the convergence between Design Thinking, Critical Thinking and TPC curriculum at universities and colleges across the nation. We’re asking for your participation in the following survey to gain a clearer picture of current undergraduate TPC curriculum regarding critical and design thinking at your institution:
Your contributions to this short, IRB-approved survey (10-15 minutes) will provide valuable insight into existing TPC programs. We aim to pair this important data with existing scholarship to develop a new pedagogical framework that will advance the field of TPC and program design.
Thank you for your consideration and time.
Questions? Please feel welcome to email us at rscatpc.
