Synopsis: |
Minimalism is an action- and task-oriented approach to instruction and documentation that emphasizes the importance of realistic activities and experiences for effective learning and information seeking. Since 1990, when the approach was defined in John Carroll's "The Nurnberg Funnel", work has been done to apply, refine, and broaden the minimalist approach to technical communication. This volume presents 14 contributions to the current theory and practice of minimalism. Contributors evaluate the development of minimalism, analyze the acceptance of minimalism by the mainstream technical communications community, report on specific innovations and investigations, and discuss future challenges and directions. |
