Proven, practical advice informed by the latest technologies
Practical Strategies prepares students to keep up with today’s constantly changing workplace, providing a concise, accessible guide to everything they need to know about audience and purpose, document design, research, style, and more. Full of clear, practical advice and real-world examples from a range of sources, the fourth edition gives students practice with the kinds of writing processes and products they’ll encounter on the job and shines a light on the challenges of writing in a variety of contexts across a variety of media. And Achieve facilitates student engagement with document-based cases tied to writing assignments, practice and assessment opportunities, an interactive ebook, and more. Practical Strategies continues to enable students to become effective, responsible communicators in a technologically saturated world.
Features
A consistent focus on audience and purpose teaches students to apply the principles of technical communication and adapt effectively to every writing situation and genre. Integrated advice and strategies for intercultural communication help writers meet the needs of diverse audiences.
Coverage of all the major tech comm applications helps students learn to write and design letters, e-mail, microblogs, resumes, proposals, reports, descriptions, instructions, presentations, and more. Annotated examples offer plenty of opportunities for analysis, and exercises help students practice new skills.
Practical help with the process of writing technical documents. In addition to solid coverage of audience and purpose, research, style, and document design, the book offers user-friendly features to guide students. These include Focus on Process boxes that highlight variations in the writing process or key steps that require special attention, Guidelines boxes that offer practical help with specific tasks, and Writers Checklists to aid in revision.
Choices and Strategies charts help students think rhetorically. These charts guide students in making decisions such as how to respond to readers attitudes, how to choose appropriate graphics, and how to choose the best media or technology tools to achieve their purpose.
Integrated coverage of social media and new technologies gives students the most up-to-date advice in the context of specific tasks and documents. Tech Tips take a rhetorical approach to using technology, explaining why and how to use widely available digital tools for common writing tasks, such as reviewing edits, formatting documents, and creating charts.
Opportunities for practice in every chapter include Document Analysis Activities, Exercises, and Cases, which get students working on real-world documents in the context of workplace scenarios. Additional resources for practice are available in Achieve with Practical Strategies.

- Document-based cases for every chapter in the book
- End-of-chapter cases in Parts 1-3 offer low-stakes engagement
- Pre-built writing assignments expand on the cases in Part 4, guiding students through multiple drafts and helping them to focus on key goals for each genre

Strategies for Online Communication boxes explore how issues of digital communication are handled by workplace professionals. Actual professionals share their strategies and insights on crowdsourcing data and information, using multiple modalities in technical communication documents, and moderating user forums. Each feature includes annotated examples.
New coverage of online interviews enhances existing guidance on finding a job. Coverage of the essentials of an in-person job interview is enhanced by new material on how to prepare for and participate in an online job interview.
A heightened focus on the relationship between print and digital provides students with the framework and support they need to read, conceive, and create content across mediums and platforms. Enhanced with examples, this renewed emphasis includes new coverage on leveraging the benefits of both media in the same end-user context.
New samples and examples throughout the text provide up-to-date models and opportunities for students to analyze real-world technical communication from a variety of contexts, such as comparison-based data visualizations and a video-based tutorial.
“Practical Strategies approaches communication not as an academic student but as a future professional who will need to communicate effectively, and often quickly, with others within and outside one’s organization. The text addresses many modes and genres of communication beyond academic resources. I’ve looked into some similar texts and really find Markel’s work to be the most effective.”
- David Michael Merchant, Louisiana Tech University"It’s a good, practical text that students representing many majors/disciplines can use with ease.”
- Rebecca Ruggiero, University of Maine
