Anarchy Online to Teach Technical Writing


My son is a games programmer in Texas. He forwarded an interesting link
to me. It describes a graduate assistant at the University of Nebraska
at Omaha who is using a computer game called Anarchy Online to teach
Technical Writing. According to the blog:

" All technical writing assignments and class discussions are now
based on in-game content, typically written from the perspective of
employees of Omni-Tek, the mega-corporate power in the game."
