SynopsisEquipping Technical Communicators for Social Justice Work provides action-focused resources and tools--heuristics, methodologies, and theories--for scholars to enact social justice., Equipping Technical Communicators for Social Justice Work provides action-focused resources and tools--heuristics, methodologies, and theories--for scholars to enact social justice. These resources support the work of scholars and practitioners in conducting research and teaching classes in socially just ways. Each chapter identifies a tool, highlights its relevance to technical communication, and explains how and why it can prepare technical communication scholars for socially just work. For the field of technical and professional communication to maintain its commitment to this work, how social justice intersects with inclusivity through UX, technological, civic, and legal literacies, as well as through community engagement, must be acknowledged. Equipping Technical Communicators for Social Justice Work will be of significance to established scholar-teachers and graduate students, as well as to newcomers to the field.
