It is very simple to write clearly as long as you can understand what you are going to write about, don’t figure this out as you are writing do this before you begin to write.
To help you write clearly you can
Use a diagram, or flowchart
Read all requirements
Ask a friend
If you do these tips early in the writing you are more likely to use them in the writing, don’t wait until your done and then do this, if you do it may not be very effective. Try to keep all your notes also so that you can review them later to make sure you have covered topics you need and want to cover.
Always know your reader, so you want to know what type of audience you will be writing to and you should also understand their basic knowledge of the subject.
When writing use words you would normally say. Don’t use jargon, cuss, slang, words out of context, so follow basic fundamentals. Remember what you type people will read and can judge you on.
Always give the important items to be covered the most room and place them first.
You should also always place things in a logical order so that people do not get lost.
You need to always tell people what is fact and what is opinion, this way people have the correct data.
To finish up always remember the three R’s, review, revise and rewrite.
