Sentence Structure of Technical Writing

This visually clear treatise outlines "Good Tech Writers Practice" in three pieces of sage advice: Plan your project, understand good technical writing, and know that writing is a habit that takes time to develop. Presented as lecture materials from Nicole Kelley at MIT, this 24-page PDF leads students of technical writing through seven steps (planning, clarity, brevity, simplicity, word choice, active voice, committing to writing as a process), and is ripe with graphs, charts, tables, and other compelling visuals. Adapted from The Craft of Scientific Writing by Michael Alley and "The Science of Scientific Writing" by Gopen and Swan, this is a great resource providing the basics of technical writing in an easily digestible format.
