✓ Lesson: Compare and Contrast Technical Writing
and essays.

I. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPT

Technical writing and essays are both forms of written


communication, but they serve different purposes. Technical writing
provides clear information, often in structured formats like tables or bullet
points, to guide actions or explain processes. In contrast, essays are more
creative and descriptive, written in paragraphs to express ideas, opinions, or
arguments.

Despite their differences, both require clarity, organization, and


accuracy to effectively communicate with their audience. Technical writing
is used for practical tasks like reports or manuals, while essays are more
suited for personal reflections or discussions.
