Driving takes up a ton of our time. According to the AAA Foundation for traffic security: "Drivers, on average, make two driving trips per day, which take an average of 46 minutes." (1) This means that over the course of a year, drivers spend on average 279 hours, or over 11 whole days a year, driving. If the old adage "time is money" really is true, then driving truly is an expensive thing. Over the next few years, it is likely that for some, that time will become more accessible. The current research and testing on self-driving cars will have repercussions for the way our world operates. Communication is one of those areas. While being in a self-driving car will not eliminate drive distances, it will free up that time for the drivers. They will not be able to anything they might want as they will still be stuck in the car. But, communication can happen anywhere. 11 whole days of freed up time is something that a lot of Americans wish they had. A lot of Americans...

The president of the United States has a lot of influence. Trump has increased it.  President Donald Trump has set an interesting precedent. It will be impossible for any future president to be able to communicate in only traditional ways. Trump's use of social media has changed the expectations of American citizens. Gone are the days of formal political statements, and press releases. From now on, Americans will demand direct instant responses to a much wider range of topics from our presidents.  Before Trump, Americans expected the president to voice his opinions on political matters. The means by which presidents communicated was mostly through television, radio, and formal announcements. These messages would sometimes take days, weeks, or even months of writing and editing until finally being released. The more controversial the topic, the longer the statement might take. This was done to make sure that the statement would correctly reflect the political views of the...

Jeramy, The other day when I told you I was taking a class in technical and professional communication, you mentioned you were not all that sure what that meant. I decided to write this letter for you to simply outline what technical and professional communication is.  As you know, I am going into financial planning for a career after college. Once I start working for a firm, I am going to need to be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and professionally. This goes with both written and spoken communication with fellow employees, and with clients. I will need to be able to write and speak in ways that are clear and concise. I will need to give presentations to potential clients in powerful and effective ways. I will need to be able to write complex business proposals in a way that is easy to understand. I will need to be able to succinctly explain intricate financial products and solutions to clients with little or no financial background. That is technical and profession...
