Question

question 1 1 pts the term \technical\ according to the textbook means writing about computers. true false question 2 1 pts one of the important differences between academic writing and technical writing is ______. whether or not you express your opinion. the length of the document. your audience. whether or not you use graphics in the document.

Explanation:

Question 1

The term "technical" in writing is not limited to just writing about computers. Technical writing can cover a wide range of fields like engineering, medicine, etc., to explain technical concepts, procedures, etc. So the statement is false.

• Option 1: In academic writing, expressing opinion (supported by evidence) is common, while technical writing focuses on conveying factual information, instructions, or explanations without personal opinion. This is a key difference.
• Option 2: Document length isn't a defining difference between academic and technical writing.
• Option 3: Both academic and technical writing have specific audiences (e.g., academics vs. professionals in a field), so audience isn't a key difference here.
• Option 4: Use of graphics can be present in both, so it's not a key difference.

So the correct option is about expressing opinion.

Answer:

False
