Assignment
1. Anywhere on campus or at work, locate a visual that needs revision for accuracy, clarity, appearance, or appropriateness. Look in computer manuals, lab manuals, newsletters, financial aid or admissions or placement brochures, student or faculty handbooks, newspapers, or textbooks. Using the planning sheet in Figure 12.37 and the checklist on page 276 as guides, revise the visual. Submit a copy of the original (or a link to the visual), along with a memo explaining your improvements.

4. Think of an idea you would like to see implemented in your job. (e.g., a way to increase productivity, improve service, increase business numbers, or improve working conditions.) Write a routine miscellaneous memo requesting action and persuading your audience that your idea is worthwhile.
