Those who teach a technical writing course would agree that teaching the course can be a drab affair. We need a new way of approaching the subject to enliven it a bit and add spice to it. This paper sets out to show that to a certain extent, report writing is a kind of art form and reports which are submitted by students are artefacts whose quality varies from person to person. A new, innovative approach to teaching technical report writing from an aesthetic perspective is worth considering. 2019-01-26T03:41:55Z 2019-01-26T03:41:55Z 2018 Article Journal of Human Development and Communication (JoHDEC), vol.7, 2018, pages 41-48 2289-2702 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/58016 http://johdec.unimap.edu.my en Center for Communication Technology and Human Development (UniMAP)
