Editing for Workplace and Professional Publications gives an overview of techniques used by editors to prepare documents for production. State-of-the-art usability guidelines and editing and testing methods are stressed throughout the course. Attention to the design and visual appeal of texts is considered an inherent part of the editor’s responsibility. The course requires the students to complete a series of editing projects, in print and electronic formats. The course assignments reflect the traditional “levels of edit” model, which stresses all aspects of the editing process, including research and fact checking, page design, usability, content editing, stylistic issues, copyediting, and liability and other legal issues.
