Skill #34: Crowdsourcing Technical Communication
Episode description
Folk working in technical communication—whether they’re academics or practitioners—through their own unique skill sets, perspectives, and experiences, often discover best practices to excel at their job. These hard-earned insights would likely benefit others facing similar challenges; however, silos often keep folk in technical communication from quickly disseminating what they’ve learned.
That’s why Dr. Chris Lam—technical communication professor at the University of North Texas—created CrowdsourceTPC: a crowdsource platform that gives folk in technical communication and opportunity to share their insights and little wins—giving others an opportunity to use and adapt them for their own needs.
In this episode, Chris joins us on the podcast to discuss the inspiration behind CrowdsourceTPC and how others can make the most of the platform.
