RHET 5307 Writing Software Documentation

Study and practice of writing documentation for computer software, including printed manuals, tutorials, reference guides, and online help systems. Emphasis on analyzing prospective users and their tasks, interviewing subject matter experts, developing help for different levels of users, writing user-friendly text, editing documentation for style and clarity, and working on a documentation team. Intensive practice with RoboHELP HTML software for composing online help.

The Adobe RoboHelp Project was designed under the supervision of Dr. Karen Kuralt for the Rhetoric and Writing Department at UALR. This project was designed using Adobe RoboHelp, Adobe Captivate, and Adobe Photoshop. It was coded in HTML/CSS to provide users with a customized look.

This project is a help system of Prezi software, offering design techniques, tips, and helpful information for users. Under Dr. Kuralt’s supervision, I designed and coded the project as the Visual Designer and Publisher.
