Congratulations to this year's award-winning authors!

Technical Communication Quarterly (TCQ) is a refereed journal published four times per year with support from Taylor and Francis, the Association of Teachers of Technical Writing (ATTW), and the Texas Tech University English Department. 

TCQ publishes research focused on technical communication in academic, scientific, technical, business, governmental, and related organizational or social contexts. Articles published in TCQ combine theoretical and practical perspectives. All articles have a sound basis in theory, use accessible examples and illustrations, and include implications for teaching, research, or practice in technical communication.

Articles cover a range of topics that include

• communication design,
• pedagogical approaches,
• the role of digital technologies,
• ethics,
• the rhetoric of workplaces or professions,
• the practices of publication management,
• dialogue between academics and practitioners,
• research methods,
• and connections between social practices and organizational discourse.
