- [Narrator] Leslie, our instructor, stands in the middle of a brightly-lit office room near a long table with laptops on it. - Congratulations, you finished the course. I respect the time and effort you've invested to learn about plain language and become a better writer. While it's modern, writing in plain language is not a fad. - [Narrator] On a blue slide, white text reads, "Plain language makes content useful for the reader." The word useful is bolded and yellow. - [Leslie] Plain language is how writers make content useful for readers. Fundamentally, it's how writers show readers respect. - [Narrator] We return to the instructor. In a narrow gray box in the bottom left, a file path displays in the exercise files folder as Resource Guide.pdf. - To help you stay on track, you can download the resource guide to plain language checklists in the exercise files. I hope we'll stay in touch. - [Narrator] Another gray box briefly appears with the URL https://www.ewriteonline.com. - Start by visiting my website.
