Research in Technical Communication in the Netherlands
Cjm Carel Jansen · TU/e Research Portal · 1994
In the Netherlands, research in technical communication is a part of research in 'functional text,' which has concrete goals that must be achieved by lay readers. Three recent studies focus on the use of and failure to use software manuals, the minimalist approach and learning styles, and the effect of using decision tables. Other research is being done in five Dutch universities, and research proceedings are being published.
