Definitions, Descriptions, and Instructions “In the Wild”

 

In this discussion board we will be discussing descriptions that we encounter in our day to day life (“in the wild”)! Think about the definitions, descriptions, and instructions that you encounter. Ask yourself what kind of description you’re seeing, if the definitions are clear, can you follow the instructions logically without further research, etc. After you’ve found one interesting (good or bad) example of each (a definition, a description, and a set of instructions), come back to this discussion board and create a post.
For your first post, you will need to summarize the definition, description, and instructions that you found in 3-6 sentences. Also include an analysis of 2-3 sentences for each that addresses if they were good, effective, and clear, or murky, uncertain, and difficult to understand and why. You will need to complete this first post before you can see anyone else’s! Your tone can be casual, this is just a discussion, but you should still make sure to proofread for punctuation, grammar, spelling, and word choice.
