In Miles A. Kimball’s (2017) article “The Golden Age of Technical Communication,” he utilized “a historical perspective to describe the development of the profession of technical communication through three ages: Brass, Beige, and Glass” (p. 330). Kimball examined the state of the technical communication profession, the historical trends and the creation of the technical ages, the accommodation of users and technology, the democratization of technical communication, invisible vs visible, user centered vs user created, anonymous vs authored, controlled vs authentic, the broadening of the definition, and a slightly radical suggestion to make technical courses available for all college students. Kimball’s purpose was to indicate “that we should broaden the scope of technical communication and spread it as a set of skills valuable for everyone to learn” (p. 330). Kimball’s intended audience was technical communication scholars and professors seeking new ways to incorporate technical writing into their courses. Kimball’s exploration of the historical perspective through the ages was an interesting evaluation of the time periods, but his conclusion involving the curriculum seems out of place.
