How do professionals in the field characterize the boundaries, artifacts, and identities?

  • Create a wiki to showcase a  "professional" communicator based on your analysis of the digital presence of people who do the type of professional communication you want to engage in
  • Goal: Identify and analyze how professionals articulate the boundaries, artifacts, and identities of the field

    Wiki Post: Map how professionals situate their identity in professional communication. To do so, search for professionals who perform the type of work that you are interested in. For example, a freelance grant writer or a business writer who writes a blog about best practices in communication. Then, develop a wiki to map the boundaries, identities, and artifacts from that viewpoint.

    Your wiki page might include these headings:

    • Profile of _____
    • The implicit and explicit boundaries
    • The artifacts these professionals reference
    • The identities these professionals assume
