Slide 1: Title Slide Slide 2: The types of messages communicated in written communication are written by the hand of the communicator or by digitally typing from a device (Perkins, 2020). This is because it can be difficult to do professional work and communicate professionally only by using pen and paper. The availability of digital interfaces and tools have made written communication more convenient for communicators. There can be feedback communicated via written messages as well as instructions conveyed by a communicator to a recipient. Slide 3: Punctuation will always be important because it can make a phrase, word or sentence imply different things with different types of communication. For example, there can be direct speech used in some context with “” to indicate the exact words spoken by an individual. Conciseness is important for ensuring that a professional message is not exaggerated to waste time and irritate the recipient (Singh et al., 2021). Editing must be done to ensure that there are no grammatical mistakes, punctuation errors, lack of punctuation marks, typographical errors, syntactical errors, contextual errors, etc. in the written message (Singh et al., 2021). Grammar is important to make the recipient believe that the communicator is knowledgeable about writing professionally in a particular language. Slide 4: If the message in written communication unclear or partially clear, the message cannot be completely and effectively conveyed to the recipient (Weiss, 2020). The content of the message must be in context to the subject matter of the message. The tone of the message must be according to the positive or negative connotation of the message. The style of the written message must be identifiable. The structure of the written message must be standardized in professional communication to make it convenient for the recipient to look for the required elements in the message (Weiss, 2020). Slide 5: The knowledge about the particular domain is required to be imbibed by the communicator before communicating about the domain to the recipient (Webb & Keene, 2020). Otherwise, there can be inaccurate information conveyed to the recipient by the communicator. Compositional skills are important to be imbibed by the communicator to ensure that there can be proper composition of content by organizing the content with a rationale (Webb & Keene, 2020). The skill of drafting grammatically correct messages is important to be imbibed by the communicator to ensure that no grammatical mistakes are identified by the recipient. Otherwise, it can be embarrassing for the communicator as the recipient will have a negative impression about the communicator’s grammar.
