Introduction

As you considered in Module 1, effective writing is reader-focused.  Your job as a writer is to anticipate your readers’ needs and make sure that your readers’ expectations and your purpose in writing are aligned. This module teaches you an approach called the Dialogue with the Reader, which is a question and answer approach to planning. 

For your assignment for this module you must complete a Dialogue with the Reader Worksheet, based on the report that you are planning to write. As you work through this module, you will develop the components of your Dialogue Worksheet.
